Event: 28th Annual Billygoat Run
 

a decent goat for me in humid, glass-fogging conditions. Would have liked to have been faster, but I need to train once in a while to do that - but the navigation was ok, with only a few minor bobbles and a couple less than smart route choices...

- Splits

Event: Pre-Billygoat Sprints
 

Arrived late, got dressed fast and went out. Realized green was fiction very early and ignored it - had a pretty good race until #6 where I got a little low, then couldn't see flag - mostly because I didn't read the clue properly. But sunny and warm - great!!

about 5 minutes breather and copy splits, then out on the 2nd course. Was feeling totally spent even before getting to #1 damn... Navigated cleanly, but slow, crossing marsh went up wrong reentrant (to R) and lost at least a half minute there. Also going to #4 ran trail too far (up over ridge) and had to come back around - then looked at code on flag and thought it was wrong (I read the wrong code on micro-clue sheet - I usually put codes on my punch card but didn't have time to prep this outing..) Started to move away from wrong flag, then realized my error and went back up - probably 40s total on the overshot, then the misreading code problems - just tired mostly. Clean the rest of the way..

Sprint #1 (Yellow) - Splits

Sprint #2 (Green) - Splits

6am - Rail Trail intervals with Bruce G.

400m on, 400m recovery

uphill 1:28, 1:30, 1:29, 1:33 (hr 147,148,146,150)
downhill 1:30, 1:29, 1:31, 1:30 (hr 146,148,136,143)

didn't feel like an even effort - first couple uphill started strong for 200m then faded over final 200m, most of the downhill intervals didn't push quite as hard but concentrated on longer stride length - actually surprised at how close all the times actually were
