Training Log Archive: Spike

Warming up and jogging back to the car.

Did a control picking course at Landahl. I went slow and easy. At the end, I checked my avg. h.r. and saw 155 -- at the pace I was going it'd usually be more like 135. So, I'm not yet healthy. I'll take a nap and do another easy run (if I feel decent) tomorrow. Landahl was packed with mountain bikers for some sort of event. Landahl is one of the parks that was hit hard by the ice storm a bit over a year ago. Some of the forest is seriously crappy.

I felt pretty good today. I took it easy though -- 30 minutes on the trainer. I taped the Paris-Nice TV coverage. Bike races are perfect material for trainer riding.

Assuming I feel decent tomorrow, I'll do some easy O' sessions this weekend.

My cold is so-so. I called off the planned weekend of training in St Louis. If I feel ok, I'll do something around here (easy) on the weekend.

PTOC event at Weston Bend. I felt pretty crappy. I've got a light cold. I missed at the first control (the map is a bit fuzzy in the area and the control might be hung wrong). After that, I ran cleanly but slowly. Despite feeling crappy, the O' was fun. After the race, Shifman announced that Weston Bend would be the site for December's Possum Trot.
