Event: BATONA 500
 

Trail Run 8:00 [2] 0.75 mi (10:40 / mi)
shoes: Poison Ice Bugs

Warmed up running to the start. Got there early for my pre-start. Caught my breath, had some water, and then got out of there...

Orienteering race (Batona 500 Batsto) 1:16:13 [4] 5.35 km (14:15 / km) +80m 13:15 / km
shoes: Poison Ice Bugs

I got to the start with time to spare. Actually getting warmed up for a change was very good - my breathing wasn't my main focus as I started. Took time to get my thoughts together and then started about 20 minutes earlier then my pre-start time.

It was a "feast or famine" kind of day - I had the top split (or near the top for my class) or the bottom most one. But it was a beautiful day in the woods. No complaints.

Worked epunching afterwards, including overseeing the 2 sprints, at the same time that the A meet was still going on. Couldn't have done it without Sandy - we make quite a team! Assistants were Robin (in training), Nancy, Graham, and Tanner - or was it Tanner and Graham? :)

Note
(rest day)

I planned to run 3 miles these evening after work. But I got shooting pains through my left knee as I leaving work - very painful. Decided to pass on the run. And it was such a lovely evening - really, it was!

Flu shot - damn my arm is sore! The nurse was impressed with my big muscle.

And I am over feeling sorry for myself. :)

Misc 1:00:00 [3] 2.0 mi (30:00 / mi)
slept:5.0 shoes: Saucony - Big Blue 2

Still coughing after this session. Warmed up with .5 mile jog, stretching, jj. Then off for a 1/4 mile run with sprinting - umm, 1/4 run is sprinting, isn't it? Anyway, it was more like 1.25 miles and we would sprint in and out of the parking lots.

Then we had to sprint back and forth like 8, 10, and 8 times with jumping rope in between. Not enough ropes, so I did jumping jacks instead for 1, 1.5, and 2 minutes. We finished off with calf raises.
Good, hard, session. Did I mention that I am still coughing? :)

Note
slept:7.0 weight:180lbs (rest day)

The race timing was a bit stressful at times today because of the large, clumped up field in the 5 miler. But we made it through okay, and it wasn't too cold either.
Sarah finished in 1:02:07.
