Training Log Archive: Kseniya

one of the last sessions, very relaxing but with some new poses. in the beginning i thought all this deep stretching could cause some injuries but so far i see only benefits from doing yoga.

Green course, leg 3, HVO relay team

I liked how I felt before this start, very calm and collected. The area is awesome, technical and fast at the same time, just wish I could have taken advantage of that but nope.. mess-ups were bound to happen since my concentration and focus drift at times during a race and on this map that was costly. #5, 6, 12, and even the one on the field were bad but it was still lots of fun and spectating was organized in a very cool way with ppl running in diff. directions all over the field.

DVOA is starting to bribe me with free uniforms.. what does HVO have to offer? no need to answer that...

C • who? 4

Event: US Middle Distance and Relay Champs
 

Red middle at Letchworth state park:

could have been much better but since i'm not used to technical o'ing anymore i forgive myself. I had difficulties realizing the terrain from this map and so confidence level dropped and my trust in the map dropped, (startng from the first control where there was an unmapped rootstock that three me off). The second half was much more flat so running hard was possible but i couldn't do that prob b/c of the heat.

Nice fast sprint, mostly in the woods but some fields and trail running as well. some stomach pains again but i tried hard to not let them distract me

Sprint 3 - Splits

short run but tough mentally and physically: heat + stomach pains + blister
this was my first attempt this year to make it to Passaic river but i didnt' get that far b/c of some remaining poddles, the big marsh is almost dry though.

Nice run at cleavlend park in 70+ degree weather. Hard breathing for some reason, maybe b/c of the heat.. legs are fine, just knees a bit sore.

1 push-up + some parallel bars

continuing project
