10 Miles total. 8 kilometer course, but easier than the 7 k because it was quite flat. Hit a time of about an hour for that one. Then we did a relocation practice, where they would lead us somewhere without our maps and we would try to find our way to the control. This was followed by a control-pick course, where we focused on always moving and keeping in contact with the map. We also practiced envisioning what was inside the circle.

Total mileage is about 9 miles. We did a 7.4 k course with some intense uphills and downhills. It had a normal part, a bearing part, a contour part, and a corridor. Good stuff. Then we did another course, and the third one was just control pickups.

Also did some weight training training in the morning. We practiced doing stuff we would end up doing Monday,

Did some path following and distance estimation training today with Erin in Colorado. 2 Miles total, I believe.

Last few were slow, but the weather was killer so I'm not surprised at all.

Follow The Leader Run, got a group of guys together and we ran whatever we felt, taking turns leading. The average was 7:55, but I think I went a little too hard on my turn, I pushed our group to run a 7:30 or so for about 7 minutes before I let us slow down.

Pulled my calf Saturday, starting to affect me but nothing notable today, don't think it had any effect on my times.
