Walking 27:00 [1] 2.4 km (11:15 / km)

Mid morning and quite warm

Orienteering race 1:00:56 intensity: (20:00 @2) + (20:00 @3) + (20:56 @4) *** 6.57 km (9:16 / km) +225m 7:55 / km
ahr:147 max:181 spiked:14/14c

Hot conditions at 80F and lots of green made for slow going. Took trail options where I could. Not an overly demanding course technically, however made no notable errors other than could have broken the hour with some more peak effort. Given conditions a pretty decent run though. SL = 5.1k
ps focused on control flow and exit direction from #2 on.

Note

AP shows a total loss of 33 sec on one leg- caught in briars! Actually felt I lost more time schlepping up green coated hills and then a double-foot plant with mud suck in a "cross able" swamp (#5); thought I was going to leave both O-rocs behind!

ahr:137 max:153

Medicine Lake round trip as an experiment. Roz on her mountain bike, me running with plan for an hour. Worked OK, stayed together on the flats, I'd power ahead on the ups and she'd catch me on the downs. Pleasantly sunny but cool breezy 40F morning - so long legs and arms and gloves to start. Steady clip, high cadence m.o. and neg splits for 6.5km; 32:41 and 31:58, with pace upped for last km.
Could have done more, but suffices as an over-distance run and have stuff to do!

Walking 27:00 [1] 2.4 km (11:15 / km)

Sniffing the breeze.

Note

Another week flown by. Missed speed w/o but compensated with strenuous plyo session midweek and can adjust upcoming schedule prior to 5k and O race next Sat.
