12mins warmup + 6mins cooldown

the short course champs and I'm the champ (by 10%). I must say I'm not exactly used to being considered a favorite, it's a different kind of pressure. I knew that I would be able to move fast easily after my run on thursday, and the park series has been good training for short-o. I followed hanne staff's strategy of trying to have a great run, instead of trying to win. that seemed to work out anyways. I was always in control, and didn't have any mistakes.

Blue - Splits

one of the usual river loops. it didn't feel like I was going much faster than usual. I didn't intend to make this an easy week, it's just that I have too damn much work to train. I probably shouldn't be going to dvoa this weekend, but whatever. though actually a medal at the short champs was my secondary goal for the season (primary=world cup). ahr:163

setting controls for franklin park. lost the first two of them to the ghetto. audun saw some kids walking around with the second one (when he was lost looking for the start), so he made them show him where it was and put it back. it later dissappeared again along with #1. dan started 10 mins before anyone else, and was the only one who found all the controls...

yeah this isn't really training, but I thought I should put something down.

running to/from/around franklin park to check the course for tomorrow.

test run of the park-o course, hehehe. I expect the winning time will be 19-something. actually I stopped at each control and counted to 5 to pretend like I was punching. some very strange places are flooded there...ducks swimming on the basketball court. ahr:174

check out a video of monkey boy's o-game. (it's the second image down)

it was dark and rainy so I ran on the treadmill again. ok, I'm a wuss. ahr:159

it was raining outside

1% incline. ahr:152

just quads and hamstrings.
