Note

QOC Pohick Bay

Cycling 1:40:00 [2]

Non-Metro parts of getting out to Pohick Bay and back.

Orienteering race 1:12:56 [4] 8.4 km (8:41 / km)

QOC Pohick Bay blue - lovely day at Pohick Bay, ran okay and my left hamstring, though still feeling the aftereffects of the 10K a week before, held up without any sense it was being set back. Lost two or three minutes on fifth control, hung much too high up a reentrant compared to where the circle on the pre-marked map was - I spent most of the lost time checking out the adjacent parallel reentrants before going all the way to the top of the correct one.

Orienteering 30:00 [2]

Pickup of the first 6 blue controls and the first brown control. Saw a wild turkey from the second blue control.

Core exercises 10:00 [4]

Did my core session while watching Planet Earth on Discovery.

Strength 15:00 [2]

Also my one-legged squats.

Rosaryville

Cycling 2:15:00 [2]

The day's cycling, including home to Rosaryville and Rosaryville to the end of the Green line at the end of the afternoon.

Hiking 4:00:00 [1]

The logged half of eight hours in the terrain. Didn't cover as much ground as I'd hoped - too many patches of thicker vegetation I had to walk the perimeters of.

Cycling 1:03:00 [3]

A merely windy commute in - here's hoping it strips some of the leaves off the trees. Had hoped to do the pool on the way to work but getting out of bed in time didn't happen - may be a threat to my ambitions regarding low intensity training volume this winter. Home by way of TPSS, dropping any idea of visiting the pool when I realised how late it would push back bedtime, with consequent injury to my hopes of getting an early start at Rosaryville the next day.

Core exercises 10:00 [4]

Didn't skip the abdominal exercises though.

Strength 15:00 [2]

Or the one-legged squats.

Cycling 1:00:00 [3]

Wet commute in but not due to rain actually falling at the time so I stayed pretty dry thanks to prophylactic measures. Home by way of the AFI Silver where I saw my first Bela Tarr film, The Man from London, possibly the most slowly and deliberately paced film I've ever seen, though L'Humanite would provide some stiff competition if it weren't for the scenes in which someone other than the protagonist did something at normal human speed.

Cycling 32:00 [3]

To work by way of the aquatic center. Home by way of same since there was no clarion call from PCRM for volunteers tomorrow and so no necessity that I go see the Bela Tarr film at the AFI tonight.

Swimming 19:00 [2]

Easy flutterkicking, which I think did my stiff and sore hamstrings some good.

Swimming 20:00 [3]

More flutterkicking.

Deep Water Running 23:00 [3]

Easier than my usual pace - called for a bit more from the hamstrings in the way of range of motion than cycling or flutterkicking had, and I could feel it for the first while.

Core exercises 10:00 [4]

Abdominal stuff shortly after getting home.

Strength 15:00 [2]

One-legged squats with backpack.

Tuesday Nov 13, 2007 #

Cycling 1:00:00 [3]

Rainy commute in. Home in drier conditions, stopping at the AFI Silver to see a selection from the European Union Film Showcase on the way.

Monday Nov 12, 2007 #

Cycling 1:04:00 [3]

Cycling commute. Definitely a bit sore in the hamstrings from the weekend - pity the pools are presumably all closed for the federal holiday so I can't do a nice easy non-weight bearing recovery session on the way home. Home by way of TPSS and a check that the pool really was closed - surpised to find it had been open until 2pm but no help there for me.

Core exercises 10:00 [4]

Abdominal exercises.

Strength 15:00 [2]

One-legged squats with backpack.
