Running (Road) 54:16 [4] 6.0 mi (9:03 / mi)
This was another interval session, and it was not a pleasant one. For some reason, everything felt wrong today and at some points, I felt like puking. But I did all of the planned intervals even though at times I was just going to stop and make it a regular run. Yay for me. I was desperately trying to get under 9:00 miles, but it was not to be. Maybe next time. Intervals were 2 mile warm-up, 10 x 1:00 fast/2:00 easy, cool down. Mile splits were 9:30, 9:20, 9:10, 8:59, 9:00, 8:16.

Orienteering 59:37 [3] *** 5.7 km (10:28 / km) +190m 8:58 / km
Ran the other Green course from Day 2 of the 1992 NA Champs. I used today's training to practice compass and pacing. Both of these are pretty strong points for me, but it doesn't hurt to practice. My woods running was much smoother today and I didn't fall one time!

Strength Training 55:00 [1]
I was supposed to do this workout last night, but last night was a bit of a disaster, so I did it this morning, instead.
Cycling 1:10:00 [2]
This was a hard interval workout. I was tempted to make it a 3, but didn't. Watched "American Idol" during this session because I wanted to try to get to bed at a decent hour, and waiting for "The Amazing Race" would have been too late.

Orienteering 1:54:18 [3] *** 7.8 km (14:39 / km)
The boys and I went to a local meet at Westmoreland State Park. I had planned on running Blue, but when we got there, it was about 80 degrees with only 2 water stops on a 9.8K course. Plus, I remembered how hilly and mucky this area was, so I dropped down to Red. And I'm glad I did. I realized half-way through the course why there was no climb listed on the clue sheets. They didn't want to discourage anyone before they even started!
Scott Pleban set the courses with some Score-O windows positioned in a few places in the middle of the course. One of the controls was misplaced, but it was easy enough to figure out where it could have been mishung...just lower down the reetrant at another junction. I passed Don about 2/3 of the way through (he started about 20 mins. ahead of me), so that gave me some encouragement. Other than being hot and thirsty, I felt fine.
