Cycling 34:00 [2]

To pool and grocery shopping then home.

Swimming 40:00 [3]

Initial 10 minutes or so of conventional swimming then much flutter kicking broken up by deep water running and lengths of butterfly.

Deep Water Running 26:00 [4]

Two blocks of running amidst the swimming.

Core exercises 8:00 [4]

The usual range of core not just abdominal exercises. I believe I did them while watching part of "Paycheck" on TV. I saw it from about halfway through once before. Must be one of the more faithful Philip K. Dick short story adaptations in terms of keeping the full complexity of the premise. Though I read the story long ago so perhaps they changed details and added fluff in ways that would offend me if I remembered the original better.

Cycling 1:05:00 [3]

To the post office to find that they had misinformed me as to which branch had my shipment from Orientsport, then from the Vienna Metro to Fountainhead.

Hiking 5:00:00 [1]

About two and a half hours streamering the control locations for the training clinic on September 2nd, then the rest GPS surveying trails not yet included on mostly the far eastern part of the map. Think I got fairly dehydrated despite drinking nearly two liters of water during the afternoon. Though part of my queasy feeling may have been due to lack of food since I find that's even harder to force down in sufficient quantity on a hot day.

Saw many deer and one and a half box turtles (one was an empty shell).

Running 20:00 [2]

Jogging back to the parking area after finishing up with the trails.

Cycling 1:19:00 [2]

Back to the Metro plus cycling to the AFI to see "The Five Venoms" then home. Stopped in at the office before the film and managed to take in enough liquids and near liquids (watermelon) to get back to feeling normal.

Friday Aug 18, 2006 #

Running 8:00 [1]

Warmup/cooldown.

Form exercises 18:00 [4]

Silly walks and 6x100m strides.

Cycling 1:22:00 [3]

Commute in then home by way of the Freer Gallery for a sample of the more psychologically complex style of Hong Kong thriller.

Thursday Aug 17, 2006 #

Cycling 1:15:00 [3]

Commute in by way of the pool and home by way of volunteer night at PCRM.

Deep Water Running 31:00 [4]

One continuous session of deep water running, sans swimming or kicking breaks.

Core exercises 8:00 [4]

More thorough job of exercising my midsection, including back and glutes.

Wednesday Aug 16, 2006 #

Cycling 1:06:00 [3]

Commute in and home, passing by the pool along the way.

Swimming 30:00 [3]

Half a km or thereabouts of various strokes and a lot of flutter kicking.

Deep Water Running 29:00 [4]

Two blocks of running embedded in the swimming.

Core exercises 2:00 [4]

Small amount of this while watching Project Runway. Might have done a bit more but there was talking to Dan on the phone to fit in as well.

Tuesday Aug 15, 2006 #

Cycling 1:07:00 [3]

Time to do some exercise again, starting with the usual cycling. To work then home by way of the pool.

Swimming 45:00 [3]

About 600m of swimming, the rest flutter kicking either without or mostly with my new fins.

Deep Water Running 30:00 [4]

Two periods of DWR amidst the swimming.
