Uhhh, so that was a night. To bed ~midnight, planning to wake up at 4:45. At 12:45 informed my alarm is going off. What? It's set for 4:45... confusion. Oh, my *car* alarm. Clothes + outside + police explain to a sleep-befuddled me that my car was being broken into- was anything missing?
Not much to be missing, luckily. I guess the police caught the guy, asked specifically if a tablet or some Raybans were mine that were on him. Nope and nope and back to bed, more than a bit unsettled.
*Then* up at 4:45, home -> DTW -> Snyder Lake. Still nothing notably missing from car, happy it has an alarm.

Snyder Lake Training by Igor
Oof the woods got thick! But worst at least was to #1, then could try to forget about. =)
Wanted to focus on just good compass bearings, middle-distance type skill, but was pushed a lot by green, so not the best terrain for that sort of practice. (Or I need to be tougher.)
Worst bit was ending up at #13 instead of #11. What? Right of line then confused about where I was and veered further right. I think mostly a loss of concentration, a mistake about what saddle was what, and not looking at compass. Still, could have taken me much longer to figure out if #13 streamer hadn't caught my eye, so definitely not good!

Nice to be done with workout well before 9am. Cool temps, although a bit bonus wet because of catching the dew.
Stopped for the now-mandatory chocolate sourdough bread from Zingermann's on the way home. Mmmm.

Running 1:04:02 7.53 mi (8:30 / mi) +61m 8:18 / mi
Two laps of Ottawa Park, double hills, using MTB trail along the bit of the loop its there. And first MTBers sighting of the year here in Toledo! Got out of the way quick enough, even though I was reading my map at the time.
Nice, if warm (80). Read Boscon and then Turcio WOC training maps. Gotta think trenches and rocks and hills, oh my!

Core. Then had to move plants on Tom's balcony to mine because they are redoing his apartment's roof and are mandating everything off balconies. Boo not having fresh basil at both apartments!

Running 33:23 4.66 mi (7:10 / mi) +12m 7:06 / mi
Morning track with Kevin.
Kevin's going for the Symphony tickets at this weekend's 5k so he wanted to take it easy and just did the first mile and 4 x 400. I finished up with 2 x 800, for all non-fractional lap options for 1 mile.
Reading a map of Lavarone - Rocchetti while running. It's easier behind Kevin for sure - on one of my solo 800s, nearly tripped over the inner-lane metal rail, eep!
Legs feeling 100% post-Map Adventure now though!

Running 4:23 [1] 0.53 mi (8:16 / mi) +3m 8:08 / mi
Dropped off in the rain at RIT to do a little sprint training!
Orienteering 16:14 [3] 2.12 mi (7:39 / mi) +12m 7:31 / mi
Longer RIT sprint, 2.7k
Trying to go fast, interrupted by a missing building at control 4 or so and confused a bit. Came out of confusion and went strong until penultimate control, when I totally messed up, heading north on an elevated walkway instead of E, gotta watch big things like that at least, eep!

Shorter RIT sprint
Better flow, but I knew the building was missing and about the construction in one area, so wasn't distraught over either of those this round. Good to have a bit better run of it, although maybe getting a little less zippy already, legs not quite 100% yet.

Mosey back along the Genesee Valley Canal path to Scottsville, absolutely sopping wet by the time I arrived! But actually good to have the rain, meant less dehydration + not overheating!

Running 22:08 [1] 2.33 mi (9:30 / mi) +67m 8:43 / mi
Used the city map from the race to go from campus, through Mt. Hood to the edge of Highland park. I didn't go through the older part of the cemetery during the race, so that was fun to see. And hilly!
Orienteering 20:29 [2] 2.4 mi (8:32 / mi) +65m 7:52 / mi
Orienteering around Highland Park on a course Tom just drew up. His first time planning a sprint course. =) Fun to do, if not terribly sprinty either in my legs or in how the course was planned.
But did get to witness the amazing collection of lilacs on the hillside, wowzer. A few still blooming.

And back, again through the cemetery. Then time for frozen custard at Allard's Abbott's.
