Run with Mike, did 5 by 3 minutes hard on the trails in PS park, 1 min off in between.

Got sunny (with some clouds but no rain), so had a nice long day outside and climbed until our arms felt like they were hard to lift ;)
More sun this weekend than I have had in awhile!

Warm up to start

Long distance Sage stomp, men's course (~12km). Perhaps tried to go too straight on the longer legs and those were not the optimal routes.

Got one longer climb in the evening in Skaha, on slightly wet rock.

Event: Sage Stomp
 

Warm up/jog to the starts of sprint then middle.

Some stupid mistakes, where I ran to a nearby control instead of trusting myself then got confused as to whether I had completed that series of controls.

Really enjoyed this race, the map made more sense at this coarser scale. Saw some of the faster boys out there for a bit.

Longer warm up with Rob, hoping Rachel would show up from her meeting that kept dragging on.

1:22 - 400m
1:59 rest

1:21 - 400m
5:00 longer rest, hoping perhaps Rachel would be able to jump in on the second half if she came back from a short warm up (unfortunately not). Also, started rather fast and was not sure I could keep it up.
1:21 - 400m
2:01 rest
1:19 - 400m

Rests, silly walks, lunges and warm down

Fun new map at Londsdale quay. Made some mistakes from 7 to 8, and also go stuck from 5-6 when I tried to cut and found a spiky bush...
Enjoyed myself, and managed ok with the change of pace near the end going back into multilevel stuff :)
