10 AM

O-training warm up/down 32:42 [2] 3.34 km (9:48 / km) +92m 8:37 / km
shoes: NB wt00

Setting streamers at Mtn Lakes. Nice weather, cool and sunny.
11 AM

O-training intervals 1:00:52 intensity: (20:00 @1) + (40:52 @4) 6.33 km (9:37 / km) +195m 8:20 / km
shoes: NB wt00

First exercise of the training camp consisted of four O-interval sections, done in group with varying start order with each interval. Group consisted of Alex, Hannah, Becky, Ethan, Misha, Evalin, and Peter. It was definitely beneficial to have people around to push you to go harder while also serving as distractions while you try to maintain focus. I felt good and orienteered well in these beautiful open woods and on this overly detailed map. Practiced selective reading of large features and letting go of control.
2 PM

Running warm up/down 10:33 [2] 1.3 km (8:07 / km) +82m 6:10 / km
shoes: NB wt00

After having a nice picnic on a lake beach we headed to Westmorland Sanctuary for the second training of the day. Warmed up with Hannah.

Running warm up/down 3:10 [2] 0.36 km (8:46 / km) +21m 6:48 / km
shoes: NB wt00

O-training 50:05 [3] 5.36 km (9:21 / km) +183m 7:59 / km
shoes: NB wt00

This was a middle type course designed by Greg on updated but unfinished map. The goal was to find flow and I did not succeed. Felt low on energy and made mistakes from the start. On uphills especially I felt that the loss of fitness from a month of not running. I tried to push myself on hilly route to #9 and totally went in the wrong direction after hitting #10; on map I was going back to 10 from 11, bah.. After that I couldn't get myself to move and head was not in the game. Lack of vegetation detail on this map and smaller rock features than expected left me frustrated. Right IT band seized up as well. Totally waisted towards the end and super hungry.

What to take away from this?
I'm getting better at simplifying details on maps that have too much detail but the opposite has proved more difficult and I had trust issues with this not fully finished map.
I should do something about this constantly being hungry thing.

Running warm up/down 5:22 [1] 0.62 km (8:37 / km) +20m 7:25 / km
shoes: NB wt00

Man, I even got made a wrong turn coming back to the parking lot. So out of it.

Yoga 45:00 [1]

core

Note

Excited for the Memorial Day training camp this weekend! Much much Oing to be done! Back when I was in really poor physical shape I would hear Ali say, "going to play in the woods", and I would look at her sideways, thinking, "this is hard work, wth are you talking about". And now I truly appreciate the fact that I'm in decent shape and happy to be playing in the woods.

Running 44:05 [3] 7.19 km (6:08 / km) +62m 5:53 / km
shoes: Patagonia trail

Fartlek / trail intervals at FP on squishy trails (bunch of 30/30 and 60/60 sec ones). I really like doing speedwork on these, lots of ups and downs, and changes of direction; requires some agility. Starting to physically feel better running but pain in the foot is still present.

Running 46:33 intensity: (30:55 @2) + (15:38 @4) 7.56 km (6:09 / km) +61m 5:55 / km
shoes: Altra 1.5

Decided to go for run at FP this morning. It was 60s and cloudy, so I felt better running the one tempo loop (~15 min) on the squishy trails. Foot was sore upon waking and during the run.

O-training 53:37 intensity: (27:37 @2) + (26:00 @4) 5.16 km (10:23 / km) +105m 9:26 / km
shoes: NB wt00

Taconic Outdoor Center Training course by Declan. Lots and lots of blueberry bushes and mountain laurel. I pushed for first 26 min of the short loop and then got tired but still wanted to spend more time in the woods. Hit a couple of other controls from the long loop and headed back. Stopped by the lake for a short and refreshing dip, O-clothes and all, as it was 80+ degrees F.
