A miserable attempt to go for a training run at Saxon Woods Park in Westchester and to try to get there by public transportation. The trip took me 3.5 hours (one way!), and rain started pouring halfway through my run, making everything so dark that i couldn't read the map at all and soaking everything i had in my backpack. I need a car. And a driver's license. Not in that order.

Shortly after i started orienteering today, i realized that i had absolutely no energy in my body. This has to be due to the self-induced sleep deprivation i've been going through the last couple of weeks while watching almost all World Cup Soccer matches on TV, live, and in Spanish. Perhaps i will try to sleep some more this coming week and will at least take tomorrow off from training.

Long training run on a wet Silvermine map. Found a bunch of controls on the permanent course set by the Fredericksons! (Thanks for that!!! It's awesome!) Afterwards, jumped into Tiorati Lake with Dmitry Kourtchikov and was amused by the three lifeguards that ran out to watch over us for the five minutes we were in the water.

Running from home down to Fort Hamilton to meet Dema at the track.

Intervals, first interval session in a while. I definitely forgot how to pace myself and went out too fast with Dema on the first lap. Did 3 1200's with 3 min rest. Will gradually increase the interval length and number as the summer progresses.
