Biking 11:00 [1] 2.0 mi (5:30 / mi)
shoes: Bike Sandals

A little bike ride at Green Lane. Went uphill and then screamed back downhill (25.8 mph). I was a little scared. ;)

Orienteering race (Green Lane Course 1) 35:00 [3] *** 3.2 km (10:56 / km) +60m 10:00 / km
ahr:140 max:158 shoes: Poison Ice Bugs

Day 2 of the weekend events held by DVOA. Again, I started with an easier course, in this case, it was the White/Yellow relay leg. Started about 35 minutes before the mass start.

Orienteering race (Green Lane Course 2) 1:07:23 [3] *** 3.1 km (21:44 / km) +95m 18:51 / km
ahr:121 max:148 shoes: Poison Ice Bugs

This was Course 2 which was advertised as the Orange/Brown course. Trails really sloppy (applies to first course as well), and I also hosed Control 2 pretty badly - small boulder in lots of green stuff. Wanted to quit before I found 2, but I hung in there and finished.

Thanks to DVOA for a fine weekend of events, and to Sandy for the dinner and overnight accomdations.

Rain, rain, go away.

Orienteering race (Camp Delmont Sprint) 28:21 [3] 2.2 km (12:53 / km) +70m 11:07 / km
ahr:129 max:152 shoes: Ice Bugs - Green

Come back some other day.

Actually, I did the Sprint first...

Walking warm up/down (Treadmill) 10:00 [1] 0.7 mi (14:17 / mi)
shoes: Aqua Velvet

Humidity was too icky, so I used the treadmill.

Running (Treadmill Program) 40:00 [2] 3.65 mi (10:58 / mi)
shoes: Aqua Velvet

Program: 1 minute at 5.0 6.0 5.0 5.4 6.4 mph x 8
Felt pretty good, i.e., I did not have to hang on for the 6.4 mph portion.
Breathing good as well. Tunes sucked. Need to do some selective uploading to my shuffle.

Note

I ordered an iphone. It is supposed to arrive tomorrow. So far, the shipping route has been China to Hong Kong to Alaska.

Note

Finally made a decision, and I am going to attend the DVOA events this weekend. Considering that it will probably be the last formal event I attend before the Scottish 6 Days, it makes sense to go. I hope I can find some self motivation for training seven weeks.

Note

Dinner with a friend, so no DVD. Maybe on Friday.

Somewhat shooting headache still.

Trail Run (Lake Accotink) 1:00:00 [2] 5.0 mi (12:00 / mi)
shoes: Salomom XT Wings 10

After the foot doctor.

Around the lake plus the spur. Added a part up and around the upper parking lot to make an hour.

Half mile splits were 543 541 623 536 550 639

Dropping at the end though temps hadn't reached 80. Decided to pass on a second lap since I have to mow the lawn today.

Mowing/Yard (Mow lawn) 10:00 [0]

Monday Jun 15, 2009 #

Biking (Commute) 29:00 [1] 5.6 mi (5:11 / mi)
shoes: Bike Sandals

Into work and two round trips to the central office.

Biking (Ride home) 24:00 [1] 4.7 mi (5:06 / mi)
shoes: Bike Sandals

Ride home the "long" way. Still a weenie ride, except for THE HILL, which I pathetically "powered" up.

Tomorrow, an appointment with the podiatrist, so the next ride in will be on Wednesday, maybe...
