Handball 48:00 [3]

Singles vs. Steve - the best player of "my generation" even though he has ten years on me. (The other guy who is good is thirty years younger, so...)

First game: 4-21 (as bad as it looks)
Second game: 21-12 (led 8-7, trailed 8-12, then things turned)
Third game: 21-16 (tied at ten, led 18-10, Steve came back to 18-16)

And we were both dripping, exhausted, and ready for some easier opponents.

8 AM

Watercize 47:00 [1]

Got there "on time" only to discover that I was late; class had started early! Can't win. And no class next week as the pool is emptied for annual cleaning.

4 PM

Running 1:09:00 5.0 mi (13:48 / mi)

New shorter version of the trail. Heat got to me though and portions of lunch elected not to continue for the rest of the run. I walked in the second half. Rather embarrassing.

Second match: led the whole way, winning 15-8-1
Third match: trailed 1-5-5 before losing 9-15-8

8 AM

Biking 51:00 [3] 11.0 mi (4:38 / mi)

Two laps of the Allegany River Trail. Traffic was much worse at two of the three major road crossings so we were surprised to see equal splits.

Tuesday Aug 16, 2011 #

8 AM

Watercize 42:00 [1]

Very late arrival, but class ran a little late, so I made some of it up...

Monday Aug 15, 2011 #

6 PM

Handball 45:00 [2]

Against Jerry (old and slow, but with skills) and Lucas (the new guy). Was supposed to be an easy night, but nobody told me that Lucas had played NCAA handball in college only a few years ago. Man had mad skills, but wasn't sure what to make of my game. (Jerry never scored more than five in any game.)

15-10 (after trailing 5-9; he let up misunderstanding that I take a while to warm up)
15-14 (after each of us had blown several game-winning points)
10-15 (after trailing 4-13)
15-10 (after trailing 5-9; Lucas got tired!)

If I keep playing him, I will either cure my bad habits or lose a lot of games.

Wednesday Aug 10, 2011 #

8 AM

Biking 50:00 [3]

Two laps of the River Trail in cool conditions with virtually no traffic at the road crossings...

8 AM

Swimming 32:46 [2] 0.83 mi (39:28 / mi)

I was exhausted all day yesterday and couldn't get going. After only 100 yards, I figured that I was about to stop, but I pushed through; SLOW, but at least I did it and I felt better near the end.

Watercize 47:00 [1]

Turning on/verifying that flags exist for 15 sites for this morning's Middle course. Time includes about thirteen minutes of parallel error-induced wandering in an area that I "knew" was wrong, but couldn't abandon.

Orienteering 15:00 [1] 0.5 km (30:00 / km) +15m 26:05 / km

Emergency reset of mis-hung bag. I placed the original bag; it was independently vetted. I hung the bag this morning. Final vetter didn't like it. Upon more careful examination, there are two rootstocks in the circle only one of which (the smaller) was mapped. Not ideal, but at least we moved the flag to the correct site. Very glad we did this right.
