Calisthenics (General) 2:00 [3]
slept:6.5 weight:170lbs
45 situps. I woke up a little late and we did a lot of errands. I had a nap in the afternoon and never got around to working out. I did however make a lot of drafting fixes to my Bethesa map.

8 AM
Bicycling (Commute) 36:42 12.1 mi (3:02 / mi)
slept:5.0 weight:169.5lbs
From Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD, to Arlington Rd. to 12th & C St. SW, Washington, D.C. It was about 53F and I rode my road bike. I got some help after Fletcher's Boathouse. Overall, I felt tired and strained to keep up the pace. I did slow it down the last couple of miles after Georgetown.
5 PM
Bicycling (Commute) 40:17 11.9 mi (3:23 / mi)
From 12th & C St. SW, Washington, D.C. to Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD. It was a nice sunny day today and rather pleasant going home. At first, it felt like I might have had a tailwind but that wasn't the case. I was just moving well. It didn't last and by Georgetown, I slowed a little; keeping a good pace. I geared down going up the hill.

6 PM
Bicycling (Commute) 8:45 [3] 1.5 mi (5:50 / mi)
From the Bethesda Metro Station, to Arlington Rd. to pickup Max's trail-a-bike then to Northfield Rd. I left too late to run on the way home.

Running 29:57 4.06 mi (7:23 / mi)
slept:5.75 weight:171lbs

It was much cooler than late July when I think I ran this last. However I was more tired from last weekend and lacked speed/spring. I netted about a minute faster. My endurance felt good.

8 AM
Bicycling (Commute) 42:00 12.3 mi (3:25 / mi)
slept:6.2 weight:171.5lbs
From Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD, to Arlington Rd. with Max on his trail-a-bike, then to 12th & C St. SW, Washington, D.C. It was about 56F starting out and I wore long sleeves for the first time this year. The winds were calm. It had been a long while since I commuted all they way downtown so I felt awkward and in poorer shape. Some of it was still recovering from the Highlander but I also rode my commuter bike which is much slower. It was Max's National walk/bike/carpool to school day or something to that effect. I got passed at Fletcher's Boathouse but I caught back up with the guy before Georgetown. Lots of cranes were dismantling the Solar Decathlon competition houses along the Tidal Basin.
6 PM
Bicycling (Commute) 47:30 12.3 mi (3:52 / mi)
From 12th & C St. SW, Washington, D.C. to Arlington Rd. to pickup Max's trail-a-bike, a little loop ther, then to Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD. I had a slight headwind and it was 75F. Once again, I just made it out of the building before getting my bike locked into the courtyard. I felt fortunate that the headwinds that I'd seen when walking with Mark Mace at lunchtime, had died down. I took off well but quickly settled into a slower pace than I had been riding. There was some construction crew traffic on Ohio Dr. again where dismantling of the Solar Decathlon continued. I rode a steady pace and passed people slowly, the whole way to Falls Rd. Hand timing because my bike computer wasn't working, I was about 42:30 to Arlington Rd. My timing was such that I got to see the end of Max's soccer practice after picking-up his trail-a-bike. It was getting dark for the last part which I mostly took easy.

slept:6.2 weight:172lbs
From Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD, to Arlington Rd. with Max on his trail-a-bike, then to the Bethesda Metro Station. Starting, I felt fine but after going most of the way up the initial hill, I felt tired fast. The was a residual effect from running the Hudson Highlander. I was fine going up the next hill.

Event: Hudson Highlander XVI
9 AM
Orienteering race (Foot) 4:35:50 26.2 km (10:32 / km) +450m 9:42 / km
HVO: Hudson Highlander. Lots of fun running and some somewhat intimidating technical parts of the course. I ran most of 19.56 miles. This was a pretty good run for me despite errors on some controls before the last sprint loop, and cramping-up on the last loop for a while. More on this later...
