2 PM

running warm up/down 17:00 [3] 1.89 mi (9:00 / mi)

3 PM

orienteering 20:01 [4] 2.55 km (7:51 / km)

Goal: don't completely blow up on the course. That part was a success, and I was very satisfied with how I reacted when things weren't making sense.

Not so good: physical fitness; I started out at what I thought was an easy pace and then had to slow down... woops!

Also I recognized on the first easy legs that there would probably be short, fast direction changes later, but I didn't look enough forward on the course to see where and plan. So while I was sucking wind up the hill to 4 I could've been planning for 8 and 9 so I didn't then have to stop for several seconds to do it.

Not looking enough at contours.
Didn't trust sense of distance.

running 21:00 [3] 2.33 mi (9:00 / mi)

Planned and visualized routes on map from Lithuania long. I think I got to 15. After 10 it was hard to find good places to read ahead and then actually "do" it.

no weights
7 AM

elliptical 30:05 [3] 4.4 mi (6:50 / mi)

down hard, back easy workout for 30 minutes. The end was hard, I was exhausted and decided to not do as much cool-down.
But this week is a down week, so that's okay.

8 AM

strength 5:00 [1]

Fell asleep at 9 last night, then slept almost 10 hours!
3 lbs, core on side ones

Saturday Feb 27, 2010 #

8 AM

strength 5:00 [1]

w/o weights, w/ abs on side ones.
1 PM

elliptical warm up/down 10:00 [3] 1.5 mi (6:40 / mi)

core/legs 37:00 [4] 3.1 mi (11:56 / mi)

4x{100 (1 exercise), 200 (2 exercises), 300 (3 exercises)}
I tried to do the same pace for all the distances, and so I felt like I was about to die on the 300's. Especially the 2 that finished into the wind.
then a mile just running, but not fast. But it felt hard because I was really tired. On the first lap of the mile, I did half the bleachers. That was really hard, but I stopped because I wasn't fresh enough to move my legs quickly and so it wasn't very satisfying.

aqua-jogging 1:00:02 [2]

I was tired, and so my muscles were working a lot harder than my heart. I tried to keep pushing moderately the whole way.
