Orienteering race 2:03:36 [5] *** 6.1 km (20:16 / km)
Ran the Green course at QOC Greenbelt event. Big problems with control # 2 again. Took me 20 minutes when it should have been about 6 minutes. I had problems with control 2 at last event. I need to figure out how to get to the second control better! Had a few other major errors but ended up correcting myself and getting back on track. I had a few good legs where I placed in top 6 on splits. I was able to pass a lot of runners on the run-in after final control which felt good. Was out of shape from being sick lately and not maintaining a running program. It was a fun event with great weather for Feb 3 (sunny and mid 50s). No event scheduled for 4 weeks now. It's at Bowie which I ran last year and did not enjoy. The place is just covered with downed trees, slash and trash. Not a fun place to run.

Cycling 1:05:00 [3] 16.0 mi (4:04 / mi)
Easy ride around Columbia. Need to take it easy on this first ride in three weeks. It was colder then I thought it would be with a cold breeze and I was a bit underdressed. I stopped and got a free newspaper and stuck it under my shirt, which helped a lot.

Core 18:00 [3]
Finally recovered from second cold of the season, well at least 95% recovered. Back to the morning abdnominal workout and stretching routine.
Cardio 20:00 [3]
To the gym for workout on the elliptical trainer during lunch hour. Need to slowly get back into a cardio routine after over a week off with a very bad cold.
Weights 55:00 [3]
Andrew and I back to the gym for weight training. Andrew had the cold too and he's a little behind me in recovery. Good workout with giant sets of dumbbell flat bench press, incline bench press and one-arm rows. Then bicep and tricep curls. Finished off with pull-ups.
