Firm pressure at 20-22spm.

Sometimes easy. Sometimes pushing. Couldn't help it but I shouldn't have.

Sprint at Mill's College. Easy jog until C10 when I could feel my hamstring getting a little tight. Walked after that. Nice day and a nice venue for a sprint.

Red Sprint - Splits

Long Champs. Stuck to my plan and didn't run a step, though I did take a couple of small leaps over muddy spots. If I'm going to walk a course, I couldn't think of a better place. For one, there is a huge amount of climb so even walking I got a decent workout and do not feel guilty about logging the time. For two, the views are wonderful. So, a very very nice map hike. I did have one small miss when I walked by control by about 30m.

ps: After all that walking I was dismayed and offended when I was accused of having done some light jogging. ;-)

Red X Long - Splits

Event: US Individual Championships (M/L/S)
 

US S/M/L champs. Middle at BAOC's Morgan Terrritory.

Nice day and my legs actually felt reasonably good during WU. That is until I was mid way through my strides and my right hamstring grabbed. I did my best to massage it and started the course at a jog. Every other part of my legs were ready to run and had good energy, but not my right hamstring. Kept it at a jog until the leg to C15 when it grabbed again. Walked the rest of the way in. Annoying. I would have really liked to put in a good effort. Now my fingers are crossed that I can at least get out tomorrow.

Red Middle - Splits

Hard work but better than last week. I'll try for 3x next week.

Can't move any slower.
