Event: WCOC Hoyt Scout Reservation
11 AM
Orienteering race 1:47:36 *** 6.46 mi (16:39 / mi) +229m 15:00 / mi
ahr:132 max:182 spiked:19/20c slept:7.0 weight:161.5lbs shoes: 2012 MT101 Green
Very nice course with two map exchanges at Hoyt Scout Res. Joe promised flat and fast, and indeed it would have been without all the undergrowth. Humid enough that I was fogged in from halfway to three through halfway to 8, with pretty compromised vision after that, although a little better airflow. Lots of poison ivy, but so far unscathed. Much thicker than the map might have suggested getting to 3, around 3 and getting to 4 on course 1, and in the vicinity of 1 and 2 on course 3.
I put my leg brace on, but it wouldn't stay up unless I cinched it down more, and I felt like it was hurting me to have it too tight, so I went without it. Seemed fine.
Thanks Joe and Pavi!

Team workout, one partner doing front squats (or in my case dead lifts, as I am laying off squats for the time being) and the other farmer's walk with 50 lb DBs. 9 rounds in 13 minutes. Cruising.

Another trip from PV. Best one so far. I think maybe I am going to be able to do this. Took a mile to get satellites, so had to add that.

Deadlifts today. I like these anyway, but they are also friendlier to my various ailments than are most other things. 5-5-3-3 with 135-155-175-195. Then we had 5x 5 DLs and 3 bar jump burpees. Used 115, but could have done fine with more.

From Pleasant Valley, with Rhonda. Better on my knee than last time, not pushing it.

Every once in a while, a little insight. There are some things I might do that are really painful to my L knee, including back squats, box jumps, jump rope. I have been laying off them for a while. Then there are things that are not really painful, but irritating. Some of those I have been cheerfully engaging in, certainly not to any good effect. Today there were thrusters, which I could do, but would certainly fall in the irritating class. Instead I thought about push presses, did a few with a light weight and decided they were irritating, too. And then the insight. Instead of the prescribed thrusters and box jumps, two exercises that don't hurt my knee at all, and I did deadlifts and KB swings, 21-15-9. Very satisfactory, and no vitamin I required.
1 PM
cycling 41:00 [3] 8.6 mi (4:46 / mi)
A little loop from PV up E river rd and back W river rd, with Rhonda and Zack. A test for the knee. Not horrible, but mildly irritating. A lot of work to do to get back in biking condition, but will have to approach it gradually.

Short Sprint at Cemetery Hill, course set by Ali. A fine day and a fine course. Lots of mistakes! Overran #1 and had to come back for it, then missed #6, tucked down in a ditch, by being a bit too far L. Only way to find it was by getting the bushes right. Ran right by 7, thinking it was on a concrete slab and not a rock, so obviously not mine. Oops! Then got in a big thicket between 9 and 10, worst error of all, losing about 1:30 trying to extricate myself. Fumbled 11 at the end, and a little wandering at 12. Lucky to do as well as I did, but a fun race, and a good public service as I woke up most of the controls.

A few minor hesitations, but basically found them all without incident. Elina and Anna Breton zipped by me around #10. I would have put up more resistance if I had any idea they would end up 1st and 2nd. Pretty tired after this, and no interest in going out for another loop. Excellent course by Phil and a fine day. Various ailments less painful today than yesterday. Who knows?
