Walking 27:00 [1] 2.5 km (10:48 / km)

Rainy day outing before heading to MSP-Boston bound

Note

Looking forward to sprint camp in the hope it will reignite enthusiasm for O. I recall PGs sprint series doing the same for me back in 2005. Just jaded from having to bash through "gratuitous" green typical of many O meets.

Orienteering (Edmands Park) 27:20 [3] *** 4.1 km (6:40 / km) +90m 6:00 / km
spiked:8/8c

Partner training, map contact, alternating legs, only your controls known. Fun exercise. Fairly hot 92F and humid.

Orienteering 19:21 [3] *** 3.0 km (6:27 / km) +80m 5:41 / km
spiked:14/16c

Park O woodsy course-trail options for the most part - ran conservatively (without compass) without significant error, but time eroded here and there by small misses in the circle. SL= 2.6k

Walking 12:00 [1] 1.0 km (12:00 / km)

Collectin controls and enjoying a pleasant Boston evening.

Note

True to say that I am more prone to performance anxiety for track than I am for O (maybe because I know I generally suck at O except maybe for sprint distance) - so I took at look at the entry lists for the NSG now only 1 month away. Good fields for the 400 and 800 and based on current times, "should" (anything can happen in the qualifier rounds) qualify for finals in both, although I've really got to get my finger out for the 800.

Walking 20:00 [1] 2.0 km (10:00 / km)

Very warm out, so tried not to get sweaty.

Jogging warm up/down 9:40 [2] 1.6 km (6:02 / km)

A few laps before track with4x100 strides

Stretching 6:00 [1]

Static and dynamic

Drills warm up/down 5:00 [2] 0.5 km (10:00 / km)

Usual routine

Track intervals 4:55 intensity: (3:00 @4) + (1:55 @5) 1.5 km (3:17 / km)

Debated the wisdom of this given 92F (probably 100+ at track) sunny, no shade. For once I was glad of the 10mph wind down home straight. Hottest outing since session in Madrid last Sept.
Anyway plan was 5x300 with 2min recovery. Felt hot, but otherwise moving well, but took stock after the 4th one as the track was being overrun by the Peewee athletes (love to see those little guys and gals start early!). Squeezed one more in. Went as follows:
60
60
60
58 (4minR)
57

Walking warm up/down 7:00 [2] 1.0 km (7:00 / km)

Walk/jog to finish.

No strains or damage from yesterday which is good.
Plan for rest of week:
M shake out run, core
T Track 5x300
W Easy run, strnegth
T Sprint camp (race)
F SC training and race
S SC training and race
S SC race x2
Looks like a bit of tempo in my future

Note

Quick check of the age grading machine reveals:
400m 82% OAE 52.4 (=opportunity)
200m 84% OAE 22.9 (=about right)

Walking 30:00 [1] 3.2 km (9:22 / km)

Summery warm today.

Jogging warm up/down 20:18 [2] 3.5 km (5:48 / km) +35m 5:31 / km

Walking 29:00 [1] 2.5 km (11:36 / km)
weight:62.7kg

A tad humid even early

Jogging warm up/down 14:00 [2] 2.5 km (5:36 / km)

USATF open and masters MN champs meet at Hamlin. Sunny, humid and of course windy (13mph SSE).
A few laps warm up and between races with 8x50 and 2x150 wind sprints.
Plan was to run the 4, 8 and 2. Unfortunately the 800 was scheduled straight after the 400 and with no recovery time I scratched.

Drills warm up/down 6:00 [2] 0.5 km (12:00 / km)

A usual routine to get things firing up.

Stretching 12:00 [1]

Static with stick and dynamic

Track race 1:04 [5] 0.4 km (2:40 / km)

First race of the day for me. Lane 2 in a decent heat. Out reasonably well, but conservative into wind down back straight, then ramped it up around last bend. Officially 1:04.41 for gold (Jim S beat me but was not eligible) and inside All American age group std.
This time last year 1:03.55 and in March indoors on the comeback trail 1:09.15. Last week was officially 1:05.09.
Anyhow this result gets me 7th U.S. and 18th world ranking season to date- like that's gonna last :)

Track race 28 [5] 0.2 km (2:20 / km)

About 40 min rest and nicely losened up. Lane 6 in a decent heat. Got out well and had some power left I the final 50m to close down for third in 28.52. Not too far off AA age group standard and good for age group gold.
This time last year 28.72 and indoors in March 30.35.

Walking warm up/down 5:00 [1] 0.8 km (6:15 / km)

Alt. walk jog to clear the legs.

Strength (Yard work ) 35:00 [2]

And some chores never go,away. Hot humid afternoon.

Note

Thinking about training and noting that a deficit for me this year, largely constrained by post surgical recovery and energy levels, has been lack of tempo runs and longer runs (eg 1 hour). Not sure if I have time to fix that this season, but will make an effort anyhow!

Walking 20:00 [1] 2.0 km (10:00 / km)

Short and sweet

Jogging (Road) 20:05 [2] 3.9 km (5:09 / km) +30m 4:58 / km

Short and sweet 2

Stretching 6:00 [1]

Legs with roller
