Note
And the university just announced that classes are cancelled for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and that we are on-line starting on Thursday through mid-April at which point things will be reassessed.
I had already decided not to go to the gym today.
I think DVOA should cancel/postpone the national event scheduled for March 21-22 but I haven't heard anything that makes me think it is even being discussed. But I'm pretty much out of the loop of decision making in DVOA so perhaps it's going on and I just don't know about it.

I'm currently teaching one class at SJU and we're also currently on spring break. I just spent all morning gearing up to go on-line starting next week. Right now we're supposed to meet Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday in person and then use Thursday and Friday to test our on-line readiness.
I imagine if Philadelphia gets any new cases by the weekend - and frankly I'm surprised we haven't had more already - then SJU will just go on-line starting right away. I'm wondering if I should just go fully on-line starting Monday and not worry about the if/when scenarios.

hiking 1:40:39 3.48 mi (28:55 / mi) +344m 22:08 / mi
ahr:119 max:154
Hill repeats. A good bit slower than last time but I had on my weighted pack. They didn't seem especially hard in that I was out of breath or my legs were sore, I just couldn't go any faster.

strength & stretching 57:33 0.75 mi (1:16:44 / mi)
ahr:96 max:136
Class at the gym. Did a lot of arm stuff while laying down which made it a lot easier so I used 5lb weights. Lunges on the other hand were a bit of a struggle as my legs had little oomph.
Was surprised that the class was normal size; no one seem panicked by the coronavirus epidemic although a lot of people were wiping off the weights they were going to use (including me) before class. They have hand sanitizer dispensers right outside the room and many more people seemed to be using them.

ahr:111 max:147
Meander through the Wissahickon with weighted pack. Actually felt pretty good for most of this. Sat down and ate a pbj bagel 2 hours in and felt good for the rest of it with no knee issues. Really happy with that outcome.
Bodes well for getting through the Crooked Compass doing the mandatory route plus a few controls on the way with lots of sitting down for breaks every two hours. Feeling more optimistic than a few days ago.

orienteering 1:37:55 3.96 mi (24:44 / mi) +172m 21:47 / mi
ahr:134 max:177
Red course (it was 5km and that was the distance I wanted) at White Clay Creek. I now remember why I don't go to events there any more. Way too many prickers and an uninteresting course.
Knee locked with a couple controls to go in the fields. Bleah.

map hiking 1:32:34 2.75 mi (33:39 / mi) +64m 31:24 / mi
ahr:124 max:160
Picking up controls. Just as thorny for those controls - all different than the ones on the red course - but I wasn't pushing and I was a little more careful. Was told none were water controls, but one was. The same control was not hung where the circle showed. Luckily I was looking around for an easy way in to the ruin/building that was in crappy stuff that the circle showed and happened upon the control on a different building on a trail. Wonder what was going on with that.
Knee was fine for this. I had sat down after finishing the red course and ate something and was thinking of just heading home, but my knee felt okay when I got up so I thought I'd test it. And it was fine. Because I was picking up controls I was stopping frequently and not really pushing so that might have something to do with it.
Still not sure how the Crooked Compass will play out.

Pokey hike in the Wiss. Put weights in my pack to get used to carrying a bit of a load.

(rest day)
Decided to take a rest day today. Can't say that I really needed it, but I don't think it will hurt either.
