Nice ski over in Laajavuori. I have always had this heel soreness from classic skiing. Its the same foot as my achilles pain, but its not achilles pain. More of a bruise. And it only happens sometimes.

A little light ski before watching hockey at 12:30. What a weird time for a hockey game. Sad that its the last one. :(

Another Doublepoling test for Racefox. Increase my attack a little, increased my frequency a little, exact same core power score.

Is this better? I'm not sure if I'm better, or just trying to do the technique the app thinks is good? I suppose by doing it, I am therefore improving my technique, deliberate or not. It doesn't feel too natural, but maybe its working. I'm sure the changes are very incremental at my level.

Question:

Does anyone know if there's any place that keeps track of WHICH targets a biathlete hit each time they went through shooting?

I'm curious about the success rate of hitting the last target versus the others. Its got to be much lower. Is the success rate higher if they've already missed one versus shooting clean?

It may be the only way to collect the data is just to watch the race again and do it with pen and paper.

C • Question 6

I ran for 25 minutes! Without stopping! And it was pretty okay! I'm not sure if it was just in my head, but there felt a little twinge at the end because its a steep uphill.

A very positive sign. I will still avoid running for a while longer. But, very positive. I should really focus on the strengthening exercises for the next period.

Just a short one, with some legs only.

Racefox frequency intervals. 14 x 1 minute with 65 strokes per minute. It claims I only did 60. But I disagree.
