Event: Bye bye Peekskill
bike (mtb) 1:46:28 [2] 12.66 km (8:25 / km) +267m 7:36 / km
Lovely morning as we woke up in the bus in Neil's driveway. Mike & I opted to go mountainbiking in Blue Mountain when the others orienteered at Fahnestock.
We warmed up by riding some bigger trails and then checked out some single track. Quite rocky, I did a lot of running with the bike or carrying it over stuff but had some awesome bits of riding too.

orienteering 54:58 [2] 6.63 km (8:18 / km) +194m 7:14 / km
15c
Did the shorter option course at Blue Mountain, regular map.
It's been a while since I orienteered, felt rusty.
Had some trouble to 6. Went straight up the steep hill to 9 instead of taking the trail around all the way to the control, ended up too far left. Wasn't accurate enough leaving 9, just ran down and had to spend some time making sure I was by the right feature, which looked bigger on the map and didn't have a streamer.

run 25:45 [1] 4.36 km (5:54 / km) +12m 5:49 / km
Alex came to our house at 7am and we did a warm up jog through Edgewood park and the Yale fields, he showed me the tunnel under 34.
run (+ drills + strength) 36:02 [2] 2.59 km (13:55 / km) +1m 13:53 / km
At the Yale track we did some drills, easy running alternated with different strength exercises, fun! Not much activity on the track but the football team had practice and there was some maintenance work going on.
run 19:45 [1] 3.5 km (5:39 / km) +4m 5:37 / km
Jog back. I've never been on the Edgewood park trails before, thought it was an unsafe area, they're nice though.
Perfect with an early outing while the temperature was still comfortable!

trail run 53:10 [2] 9.57 km (5:33 / km) +149m 5:09 / km
Morning "run" around Lake Wintergreen. I was struggling, heavy legs. Stopped to stretch a few times and to read a sign warning for ground bee hives, considered back tracking and taking a different route but went on that trail and it was fine.

strength 1:00:00 [2]
trail run (& hike) 40:21 [2] 5.11 km (7:53 / km) +122m 7:03 / km
with Mike at West Rock. We went out late (8pm) and it got darker and darker.. could have used a headlamp on those rocky trails. Had to walk most of the way back.

Extended shoreline loop with Mike in the evening. Felt good to get out. I was pretty exhausted after preparing, cooking, cleaning etc.
