Event: US Individual Champs 2009
Running - Road / Track 2:30 [2] 0.31 mi (8:00 / mi)
slept:5.4 shoes: VJ Twister (US size 10.5) - 4
I jogged from the map handout to the start/finish point for orienteering then back to the car afterward.
Orienteering 33:54 *** 4.4 km (7:42 / km) +165m 6:29 / km
ahr:152 max:165 13c shoes: Brooks Adrenaline GTS 8 - 3
I ran at an easy pace through the 4.4km course at the middle distance practice event before the U.S. Classic Champs. I wore running shoes, in order to put less load on my achilles, and it felt fine, although the footing was a bit slippery. I did slightly turn my left ankle once, but it didn't hurt much and wasn't sore afterward.
The terrain was really fun, and the map was good. I mostly kept good map contact, which was easy at my slow pace, although I think I had one small error. I apparently lost my map, so I can't go back and look at how I ran in detail, but it was a good practice for the weekend races.
My heart rate was very high for my exertion level, which I guess isn't surprising, since I'm the least fit I've been all year, after all the time away from training, due to my injury.
