biking (road bike) 1:09:00 [2] 16.0 mi (13.9 mph)
slept:9.0 (rest day) shoes: Shimano (bike)

Easy ride to Clinton Pkwy & Dam Rd, then took bike path to arboretum and home via Alvamar. GPS (Edge305) was funky - looked like today's distances were added on to warm up ride around the Kansas Speedway from May 27th. Easy, but comfortable out of the saddle on a couple of uphills - just one week later and already feeling a little stronger on the bike. Wish I had trained for that corporate challenge bike race.
But, now on to making an O' map. (yes, I got the word orienteering back in my training log. . .)

running/walking warm up/down 20:00 [1] 1.0 mi (20:00 / mi)
shoes: Saucony Progrid Ride

dynamic stretching in parkiing garage, 1 mile warmup; after race tried to warm down but quit after 3 min due to cramping.

running/walking race 1:46:48 [5] 13.1 mi (8:09 / mi)
slept:7.0 shoes: Saucony Progrid Ride

Hospital Hill Half Marathon - after reading the NY Times about the marathon strategy to run a mile, walk a minute, I gave that a try at today's half. Set the Forerunner to keep track of 1 mile laps; after a mile walked up to 1 min.
Splits: 7:49, 8:23 (=7:23 + 1:00), 8:29, 7:39 (must have been the downhill), 8:01, 8:41, 8:01, 8:05, 7:45, 8:05, and at mile 11, did 8:39 but took no more walking minutes, then 7:54 at 12 and 8:09 at 13. Legs were cramping the last half mile. 7th in M60. Temp: 70F, overcast, comfortable.
20 min ice bath

strength/stretching 30:00 [1]
shoes: Vasque Blur

AM - Dog Days # 3 - Red Dog's last day for radiation treatment, so he showed in a sport jacket and tie. I took some photos (too low of a shutter speed, so most were disappointing). Did part of the calisthenics and ran from Robinson to Spooner Hall to look at the newly installed artwork around the tree. Easy (and needed) training day.

Tuesday Jun 2, 2009 #

strength/stretching 30:00 [1]
shoes: Vasque Blur

AM - Dog Days #2 - calisthenics and across field drills (hopping, high knee lifts, side shuffles)

running/walking 51:00 [3] 5.5 mi (9:16 / mi)
shoes: Vasque Blur

AM - from home to Robinson, did Dog Days, and back. Felt more energy today. Light rain before and after workout - great cool morning.

Monday Jun 1, 2009 #

strength/stretching 20:00 [1]
shoes: Vasque Blur

AM- Dog Days #1 (counting the days for a t-shirt again this summer) - dybanic stretching - some at home some before DD workout. Calisthenics on the grass on the fields east of Robinson. Brought a towel (not large enough) to avoid chigger bites. Usual day 1 announcements, then run.

running/walking 15:00 [2]
shoes: Vasque Blur

from field to Jayhawk Bookstore, Jayhawk Blvd, down by library to Sunnyside, then up stairs by Wescoe and down.
Thought about going the 6 pm DD workout, but better not overdo it before Hospital Hill.
