Running 11:30 [2] 1.15 mi (10:00 / mi)
shoes: R-NB Grey Shoes

A bit outdoors, then treadmill, then indoors. And only racked up 11 minutes. It was cold this morning. Will try to do a bit more in the afternoon. Overall a decent weekend of O' results. 3rd, 5th, & 3rd; US place: 2nd, 2nd & 1st.

Competition was far less fierce than it will be at the Trials, so I've still got to work hard on fitness to get a few % faster by the Trials.

Running 14:03 [2] 1.41 mi (9:58 / mi)
shoes: R-NB Grey Shoes

Just a bit more putzing around later in the day to make my goal of 25 minutes. (50 minute plan /2 due to cold.)
Speaking of which, my results this past weekend are way better than I was expected after getting cold symptoms on Thursday. I was definitely congested, mild sore throaty, and mildly coughing throughout the weekend, and am still so a bit today, but if anything, I'm a little better this evening. I seem to have run through this cold pretty much fine (although perhaps it is too early to tell.)

Orienteering race 1:35:35 [4] 13.78 km (6:56 / km) +380m 6:06 / km
ahr:164 max:175 shoes: O' Black/Orange VJ Twisters

Long race. Slower than yesterday despite still pushing, but body & brain held up pretty well - even Eric ran out of gas at the end, so I ended up 1st US, 3rd overall in the mid 90's with a few other typical-rivals back in the 100's & 110's.

As an aside, I fell on my right elbow/shoulder in every single race this weekend. And in the Ugly Mudder last weekend. That's one way to HTFU.

Running warm up/down 15:00 [2] 1.5 mi (10:00 / mi)
shoes: O' Black/Orange VJ Twisters

Good warmup while waiting for starts to open, near zero cooldown.

Sunday: Blue M21 - Splits

Saturday Mar 3, 2007 #

Running warm up/down 10:00 [2] 1.0 mi (10:00 / mi) +10m 9:42 / mi
shoes: O-Black/Green VJ Spikes

Slacker on/off warmup

Orienteering race 40:07 [4] 5.26 km (7:38 / km) +205m 6:23 / km
ahr:175 shoes: O-Black/Green VJ Spikes

Apparently had burned up most of my 'zip' yesterday as I felt that pushing hard did not result in high speed progress today. Still, was fairly clean - about 2 minutes or so with worse error of ~45 seconds at control where many others met the same fate - and so result was decent.

Running 30:00 [2] 3.0 mi (10:00 / mi)
shoes: R-NB Grey Shoes

Cooldown, jogging some white with AJ, jogging some Trail O'. All on a beautiful 65 degree sunny day.

M21 WRE Blue - Splits

Friday Mar 2, 2007 #

Event: BOK/US Team Umstead 007

Orienteering race (Sprint) 15:45 [5] 3.0 km (5:15 / km)
ahr:175 max:185

Hammered around a Sprint course at BOK. One mistake where many people made a similar mistake. Map was a bit weak near the control, but I think the biggest problem was people being pushed high by vegetation. People on a precise bearing did better.

Running 30:00 [2] 2.5 mi (12:00 / mi)
shoes: O' Black/Orange VJ Twisters

15 minutes warmup, 10 minute cooldown, some running with AJ on White.

Long Sprint - Splits

Thursday Mar 1, 2007 #

Note

I'm getting a sore throat... Great #$&*ing timing. Vit C, zinc, tea, gargling, etc...If this doesn't magically disappear in the next 24 hours, I'll be racing sick in events that I really need good scores on to contribute to my TT score. I guess that's only one of 4, but it sucks. I may have to drive to OCIN to try to get more non-sick A-events in, but it's going to be hard to haul the kids again. Hopefully..

C • That's not good at all, but I ... 3

Running (Paved, grass) 25:00 [2] 2.5 mi (10:00 / mi)
shoes: R-NB Grey Shoes

Short run in the afternoon, before setting out for the long drive.

Running (Dirt, muddy grass) 56:10 [2] 8.87 km (6:20 / km) +95m 6:01 / km

Light loop - resting for this weekend.

Running warm up/down 32:21 [2] 4.7 km (6:53 / km) +40m 6:36 / km
ahr:125 shoes: O-VJ Integrator Cleats

Snowy, icy, warmup. R-calf sore, so only did 3 of planned 7 hill intervals, then massaged out calf and planned 30 minutes more later.

Running hills 10:00 [4] 2.0 km (5:00 / km) +128m 3:47 / km
ahr:160 max:174 shoes: O-VJ Integrator Cleats

Running (Treadmill) 30:00 [2] 3.5 mi (8:34 / mi)
shoes: R-Nike Blue & White

at 9 pm. Massaged out R-calf again. It's still sore, but not as bad as this morning. Should be fine for this weekend, I presume.

XM comedy radio helps the minutes go by. (Still haven't moved things so I can watch TV as I run.)

Note

1yr Volume is 245hr, 143rd place. Up 17hr, and 4 places since 1/31.
62 hr. of training in 58 days so far this year, so I've got a very slim buffer ahead of the 1 hour per day average...
I have still trained every day this year.
