Orienteering 35:55 [4] 4.79 km (7:30 / km) +345m 5:31 / km

US Team Fundraiser WRE - all but entirely clean run. No doubt assisted relative to the field in general by QOC's abundance of both spur and reentrant terrain and races run in same in the previous month and a half - most of the competition presumably wouldn't have had so many races available in December and January. Felt bad physically but it was clearly the feeling bad due to high speed and an evil amount of climb for the distance sort of feeling bad since I'm not about to complain about coming 2nd to an elite Finn.

Orienteering 55:00 [2] 4.0 km (13:45 / km)

Precision training set by Eric Bone - perhaps 1.5 km of line-O with five or six controls and then 9 bags of control picking. I do so little technique training I felt I couldn't pass this up. Managed to turn the 6th control picking bag into a relocation exercise, nor was the line-O trivial.

Cycling 1:16:00 [3] 15.0 mi (5:04 / mi)

Wednesday Jan 12, 2005 #

Cycling 1:37:00 [3] 18.5 mi (5:15 / mi)

Non-impact day mandated by an evening seeing the Kirov Ballet dance a modernist version of Cinderella. Also probably not a bad idea to suspend the pounding on my lower body before heading to Alabama.

Tuesday Jan 11, 2005 #

Cycling 1:06:00 [3] 13.0 mi (5:05 / mi)

Running 25:49 [1]

Warmup, cooldown and approximately 2 minutes of rest between repetitions.

Running 16:11 [5] 4.4 km (3:41 / km)

4x1100m I intervals on slightly wet grass in 4:00, 4:03, 4:04 and 4:04 - even pacing by my standards.

Monday Jan 10, 2005 #

Cycling 1:06:00 [3] 13.0 mi (5:05 / mi)

Form exercises 44:00 [3]

Feeling good despite moderately heavy Sunday. Did the usual warmup and cooldown, bum kicks, A's, B's and 9x100m strides and two sets of 25 two-legged vertical leaps (jump up, bringing knees towards chest, land, repeat).

Cycling 1:20:00 [3]

Home to Greenbelt and back by way of REI and food shopping at Takoma Park Silver Spring Co-op.

Orienteering 1:01:46 [4] 8.5 km (7:16 / km) +245m 6:21 / km

Greenbelt Motala Blue - Nadim set two similar loops around the northern half of the park with pairs of orienteers of similar ability starting together and doing the loops in the opposite order one from the other. Fun. Ran hard and well through a great deal of nasty stuff, some of which I should have avoided by running on a road like Eddie did. Overran a vague attack point for one control and had to relocate on the trail forty or fifty meters past it.

Orienteering 30:00 [2]

Pickup of eight bags.
