Cycling 1:00:00 [2]

Some time on the trainer after a weekend of lots of running. My legs actually didn't feel bad at all, which is a nice side effect of being more in shape. I just thought they deserved a bit of a rest.

Orienteering race 1:25:13 [4] *** 9.1 km (9:22 / km) +300m 8:02 / km

Fair Hill Day 2 Red course. I had a better day today. I felt stronger throughout the whole course and more sure of myselft. My only problems were with #18 (didn't see the fence and went through the opening only to find the control on the other side of the fence and had to go back around ~45s) and #19 (I drifted too far to the right coming across the field, misidentified the stream junctions, and looked too far upstream at first ~1:30). Otherwise, I'm very happy with today's run and with the whole weekend. DVOA put on another stellar meet, as usual. Thanks!

Note

A review of March's monthly training goals reveals that I met (or almost met) everything but the "Other" goal. And that just comes down to a basic lack of time to do anything but my core training. Hopefully, my upcoming trip to Moab will catch me up in the Other category via mountain biking.

March Results

Orienteering 103% to plan
Running 100%
Cycling 99.5%
Strength 104%
Other 0% :-(

Orienteering race 1:25:01 [4] *** 8.2 km (10:22 / km) +350m 8:33 / km

Red course at Fair Hill A-meet. I am not unhappy with this race. I'm frustrated with a stupid mistake at #21. The description for this was "bend in trail," and I was ridiculing this on the way to the control, thinking that a bend in trail control was *not* a Red control. And then I proceeded to totally blow it...argh! Other than that, I made a few seconds of mistakes at other controls, but nothing too bad. I was pretty tired at the end, but still moving at a good pace for me, so that was good. Yes, all in all, not a bad outing.

Some last minute stretching before the weekend.

Running 27:39 [3] 3.0 mi (9:13 / mi)

A quick run through the neighborhood. This brings me to my running goal for the month and is a good ending point before Fair Hill. It was a beautiful, cool morning and I felt good today. I wasn't feeling so spritely at Gettysburg, so this was a nice boost.

Core Conditioning 40:00 [2]

The DVD. Good way to start the day.

Running 1:00:00 [3]

I went up to Gettysburg to show some out-of-town friends around. Afterwards, my friend, Meg, and I did a lollipop loop out of the Visitor's Center, over Little and Big Round Top, down to Sickles Ave. and back over towards the Visitor's Center. On the way back, it was getting later than we thought, so we tried to take a shortcut across a former wheat field. Instead of feeling like Civil War soldiers, however, we felt like water buffalo as we slogged through swamp-like conditions in an area where we should not have been. Maybe we were channeling Francis Marion, instead. Definitely a Lucy move!
