Forced myself to take it easy today. I've got some sore spots in my legs got stretched afterwards. I was hoping to throw the frisbee in the park later with some of the guys, but that didn't happen.

Event: CSU All-levels training camp
 

Fantastic race. Not really sure what the event was, but it was hosted by OK Allerød. I ran the Åbne baner H21, which is open class M-21 for those who don't speak dansk. The map was very simple and very flat, which made for some very nice running. I lost of bit of time on 11 near the control, but I definitely had the best route through the marshes (which were very bad in that area). On my way to 16 (back through the marshes) I was trying to avoid getting wet because I saw the guy in front of me waste deep, and I didn't want that. Of course, that did end up happening when I tried to jump to one of those little spots that everyone tries to hop across. Anyway, there were some gross bits nearby so I tried to avoid those. The thing I landed on was definitely not solid and I sort of slipped backwards and went in up to my chest. I also discovered that the "gross" bits were just dirty ice, which I had broken through. Needless to say I was pretty cold, but I hauled my way out and just kept going and warmed right up soon afterwards. I didn't experience anything quite as eventfull as that, but I did lose some time on 23 and 24 because I never took the time to check my exit direction. I went right both times, but recovered quickly.

I'll have to wait until later to know for sure, but when I left the event site today, I was in first by 7 seconds, but there were only three people listed.

It was a fantastic run, all things considered. I loved being back out there and the woods were just so beautifully beautiful. I'll post pictures, or links to pictures whenever they upload.

So I signed up for Parkrun. It's a free 5k series that meets saturday mornings at 9am. They're all over europe, too.

C • Meets every morning? 2

Felt pretty good today. I'm still sick, but it was such a nice day, I couldn't let it go to waste. There was a race around/through/near the park this morning. It must have been pretty big because there were large banners along the course which was sort of marked with cones. I was hoping they were in the process of setting up, but that was not the case (although I'm not 100% sure about that). I did find a website that I'm going to check out. It was written on the trail with paint/flour/something white. Before I forget, it was parkrun.dk and the race had something to do with run copenhagen and was called Lød which I later translated to race.

Interviewed a guy from Siemens today as part of my project here in Denmark. When we left, I saw a control with an SI box. I had to go back to the apt. though because of a group meeting, but I searched google for the event, and I found it. After the meeting, I immediately left for the event. When I arrived, though, the event was closed... so i didn't get to run, but I did talk to a guy there who told me they have trainings on tuesdays and thursdays which I have every intention of going to.

Woke up feeling significantly less than 100%, although I was definitely above 50%. Hopefully it goes away soon.

Kinda crappy out today.
