Orienteering race 1:00:49 [4]

I was going to run Green, but switched to Brown...again. I told Amy I would help her with e-punch since Valerie wasn't going to be at the Prince William meet, and I had to get in and out quickly because I wasn't finished with my OUSA admin homework yet, and I had to get home to do that.

I'm very happy...that I forgot my Garmin today! Major sloppiness and ugliness to 4 and 5, the latter being totally ridiculous. I was supposed to hit a trail, run up it to a field, through the field and down the other side to a jeep road. Well, I hit the trail, ran through the field, and somehow curved too much when coming down the other side that I hit the same trail again! Just lower down. So stupid, but I laughed.

Other than those two, everything went fine. I had seen a guy at #2 and was positive he had passed me in my 4/5 craziness, so my goal became to catch him again before the finish. And I did! I punched the last control and was going to take the trail to the finish, which was a tad windy, when I saw him ahead of me on the trail. So, I cut through the little strip of woods out to the same field as before and ran in front of him as he was coming out of the trail into the field. Punched into the finish about 2 seconds ahead. I thanked him for the motivation.

Strength Training 30:00 [3]

Ok, new plan to try to fit in workouts. I joined the fitness center at work, and it has classes at lunch...30 minutes of intense cardio and strength training. It also has yoga on Tuesday and Thursday, and spin class after work. I did this because I realized that I just wasn't getting to my regular gym, so needed something easier to get to. We'll see how long this lasts.

Note

While looking for another photo, I found this one. Can't remember if I've posted this before, but it's at the 1977 US Champs at Pocahontas State Park in Virginia. Yours truly in the front row far right and Mr. Fox is in the back row far right. Sharon Crawford is standing far left, next to Peter G. And the memorable Jim Plant, 4th from left in back. Memories.
