Orienteering 1:56:52 [3] 9.0 km (12:59 / km)
Surprisingly Difficult Blue at Star Village. Lots of climb and 3.5 hours of sleep last night made it a bit slower. I'm glad I was able to even do it considering how tight my arch got in the morning. A few bobbles which I determined were mainly due to me letting the incline push me around and get me off course. BE ASSERTIVE!

Running 10:15 [5] 3.0 km (3:25 / km)
Really Ugly Steeplechase at PSACs but I did make it there. I was last place.
Possible Reasons behind race:
1. I think I peaked a little while ago and I am still not used to having a season that essentially lasts from august to may. Very tough to keep fitness going that long through workouts.
2. Race went out pretty fast. My first two laps were 75s. I was thinking I could've gone slower and possibly picked up more people but I was already hanging in last by 5 or more meters.
3. Left arch began hurting alot. I don't like counting injuries as excuses for poor races but it did make it difficult for me to jump in a relaxed way.
At least now I can relax (a bit)

Running 35:00 [3] 4.8 mi (7:17 / mi)
Premeet in the woods next to the track. 3x20 second uphill striders. Running Drills. Hip and knee still sore. But I am feeling strong otherwise. I want to run well tomorrow. I'm not sure what will happen. But I know I want to run well.

Running warm up/down 22:00 [3] 2.9 mi (7:35 / mi)
Warm up on warm up loop. Then 12 minute cooldown barefoot. Right hip and knee still feeling really sore. All I can do is ice and ibuprofen I suppose. Only a few more days.
Running 28 [3] 4.0 mi (7 / mi)

Pretty much striders before PSACs.
Workout was 4x200 @34 on 200 jog, 4x400 over hurdles @77-78 on 400 jog, and 4x200 @34 on 200 jog.

Overall pretty easy workout. The 400s over hurdles felt surprisingly easy. I couldn't believe how easy it was to get over them. Also the 200s I had to really hold myself back on cause my body just wanted to explode through them. The only negative thing is my hip and knee. They felt fine while I was running quickly though and felt crappy when I was in my recovery jog. Funny.

Running 50:00 [3] 6.83 mi (7:19 / mi)
Duck pond with Eric E. We found a new trail that goes alot farther and makes it alot easier to add time up at duck pond. Great run. Really beautiful day out.
