Orienteering warm up/down 11:31 [2] 1.0 km (11:31 / km)

Warm up for the Sprint on the model area/course they'd set up.

The Sprint.

Made four total errors with would account for about 3:30 of the six!! minutes I was behind the leaders. Two were lack of compass work, one was route execution and one was route choice.

Orienteering 37:23 [2] 2.1 km (17:48 / km)

Running around the classic model area/course with Gerald Yip. It was a very good thing we did this because the Sprint map was at 1:5000, the next two days are going to be at 1:15,000. It was good to be able to pre-adjust to the scale and mapping style/inaccuracies. Also, everything's so tiny!! Two major lessons from the sprint and the models is following my compass and distance.

Trail Run 29:50 [2] 3.14 mi (9:30 / mi)
ahr:163 shoes: Asics Trabuco (Rusty Coffee)

In Ute Valley after Dodgeball with Chad. He was running home. I totally forgot all of my cyborg accessories so the distance is the only accurate number here, eveything else is a guess... *Shrug*

Oh yeah, I seriously need to get a better LED headlamp, the Tikka I'm using just isn't cutting it, and using the super high powered Night O lamp is a bit overkill...

Ran easy to the CC track where I ran 4x400 with 200 rest for a total of 1.5 miles. Ouch! This is probably the last time I do a track workout. I'm going to measure out a 400 and 800 meter loop in MVP, I already have a 1 k and a 1 mile loop in that park.

Fall Series Trail Race #3 Ute Valley Park

Trail Run warm up/down 10:00 [1] 1.11 mi (9:01 / mi)
shoes: Asics Trabuco (Rusty Coffee)

Warm up for the race.

Trail Run race 48:45 [5] 5.99 mi (8:08 / mi)
ahr:179 max:189 shoes: Asics Trabuco (Rusty Coffee)

My legs felt kind of stiff when I was warming up but once the race got underway they felt just fine. It wasn't 'till about 1/3 into the race when I started to gag and had to stop and hack up a good amount of mucus. I didn't actually throw up but it had the same result. I was struggling for the rest of the race and had to walk up the last big hill. Overall it was still a good race I just wish I didn't have to stop.

Results.

C • yikes! 2
