Event: SVO Lancaster Co. Central Park

Event: DVOA Tyler State Park

Running warm up/down 8:24 [2] 1.0 km (8:24 / km) +20m 7:38 / km
ahr:121 shoes: O-VJ Integrator Cleats

Warmup - running in (no-spike) cleats today as test for Trials. Shoes were good.

Orienteering race 20:57 [4] 3.52 km (5:57 / km) +90m 5:17 / km
ahr:175 max:188 shoes: O-VJ Integrator Cleats

Campus/forest mix - good prep. for 2 weeks from now.

Good news: Knees held up & I won the course.

Bad news: I'm pretty out of shape as I won the course barely (and not vs. Clem, who's out with his own knee problems), and based on fewer mistakes than the rest of the top 4, who I seemed to be running slightly slower than on some clean legs.

Mistake to fix: I chose to dart through a short bit of light and medium green instead of run around and that cost me 30-40 seconds. Reminder that on a sprint, taking an around-some-junk option is often worthwhile.

Not sure how much better shape I can get in before the Trials. I was thinking a 5k on Saturday might be in order, and fortunately, I have 4 choices within 40 minutes drive - wow. I'm leaning toward the Kimberton one, because I ran that last year so I have a reference to how much I've slowed while injured.

Orienteering (Control pickup) 40:00 [2] 4.0 km (10:00 / km) +80m 9:05 / km
shoes: R-Saucony Gray

Ended up doing this instead of Red, as it was kinda late, and I'd already run a Sprint, and chased AJ while carrying Oriana on White (had to let him go at one point - he had a great run) so I didn't want to test my knees with a full Red as well.

Noticed a lot of poison ivy out there in parts... Hope I don't get much (so far - Wednesay - I only have a small patch behind the R-knee.)

Saturday May 10, 2008 #

Running 18:39 2.92 km (6:23 / km) +40m 5:59 / km
ahr:145 max:175 shoes: R-Saucony Gray

Surged up one hill. I think.

Friday May 9, 2008 #

Running tempo (puddly dirt-track) 6:32 [4] 1.0 mi (6:32 / mi)
ahr:177 max:186 shoes: R-Saucony Gray

100, 96, 100, 96. I'm definitely out of shape, but the good news is that my knee was fine during and after this. My R-knee is getting tweaked after though so I think it's back to the 2-straps thing...

Thursday May 8, 2008 #

Running 25:10 [2] 3.79 km (6:38 / km) +130m 5:40 / km
ahr:145 max:161 shoes: R-Saucony Gray

AM: Short loop plus twice up/down a moderately steep, ~1minute hill in VF park.

Running 6:03 [1] 0.81 km (7:28 / km) +8m 7:07 / km
ahr:118 max:127 shoes: R-Saucony Gray

7PM: Back and forth on Salomon w/AJ. This was easy, but then we played badminton afterward w/o the strap, and the knee seems a bit upset this evening, perhaps from that latter event. Good news is AJ's getting good enough at badminton that it's actually reasonably fun to try to rally with him. Our current record is 13 hits in one rally, exceeding the record as of yesterday, of 10.

Wednesday May 7, 2008 #

Event: Chesco Trail Running Series #1

Running warm up/down 15:53 [2] 2.41 km (6:35 / km)
ahr:155 shoes: R-Saucony Gray

Sprint training on the new map "Chesterbrook-MountainView" - warmup

Running tempo 6:11 [4] 1.27 km (4:52 / km)
ahr:173 max:183 shoes: R-Saucony Gray

1km Sprint time trial - knee not hurting, although I was nervous about it. Still wearing the strap and wondering if I could take it off, but not going to try that yet...

C • strap 1

Tuesday May 6, 2008 #

Running 20:40 [2] 3.0 km (6:53 / km) +60m 6:16 / km
ahr:136 max:150 shoes: R-Saucony Gray

Another short/easy thing. Knee imperfect but not bad - not much icing needed - like once a day...

Monday May 5, 2008 #

Running 20:17 [2] 3.12 km (6:30 / km) +44m 6:04 / km
ahr:137 max:149 shoes: R-Saucony Gray

Shortest possible "loop" through the park. Knee okay (not great, not bad.)
