Training Log Archive: salal

3 hour rogaine in Lynn Valley - really good course, with lots of options and many controls. Pissing with rain, so lots of water! Then the top bridge/area was closed down because of high water levels (just around when I got there and people were still coming out, so I snuck through), and that messed with the results. Not sure I would have won if everyone had actually had a chance to do the route they wanted.

Short run in PS park with Thomas and Catherine

Stretching / core

Longish warm up

Maybe started off too fast, was rather lacking in energy to push...

Getting to the other side of the track between intervals

Warm down with silly walks and some plyos

WET at Central park. Should have brought a compass as I got completely turned around in the small trails on the way to the second control. Relocated, but felt hesitant after that... like I had forgotten how to navigate in the dark. Also, stopped to talk to the scouts to make sure things were going ok.
