Home from work.

Flying Pig Middle #2 - other parts of the drive train were unhappy but my left hamstring vetoed running in any meaningful, full-striding sense of the word so I just jogged around the course. I assumed Maricel had a similar experience to be only a couple of minutes ahead of me but it looks as though he was running fairly fast and making big mistakes.

C • Nice Runs 1

Sunday Blue - Splits

US Ultralong Champs - surprisingly third with the AP analysis saying three more people would have beaten me if they'd managed to keep their error time no higher than mine. I suppose I can legitimately take credit for some combination of better pacing and better navigation while fatigued but having more speed if not necessarily speed to burn would be nice. Managed not to reinflict significant damage on my right ankle and it's at least somewhat encouraging that my left hamstring didn't fail during the race but the aftermath of this was painful.

Saturday UL Blue - Splits

Event: OCIN Flying Pig XV & US ULtralong Champs
 

Flying Pig Middle #1 - one huge mistake and one medium sized one in an otherwise okay but not brilliant race. Looks as though my running speed is currently significantly if not enormously less than that of the top tier of North American elites, which may or may not, given my late starting base training this year, be fixable over the next month or so, assuming my body holds up.
