I had a great long run today. I haven't been able keep this good pace for such a long time for a while. Especially considering pushing myself yesterday for the orienteering race.

Event: NEOC: Great Brook Farm NOD
 

I had my best race since starting orienteering again. I had a much faster pace and stayed sharp on the orienteering. Especially the beginning with a little more technical orienteering, 4,5,6,8, and I was actually in the lead at control 8.

I still need to get faster though. It becomes very obvious when you are looking at leg 12 and 13, that was less about orienteering and you just needed to go full out.

I mostly had a solid race and I am very happy with being close behind some of the very best US orienteers. Just a few bad route choices chronicled in the leg comments.

Leaving late from work after a busy day. Not really in the mood for training, but after starting, things went pretty well and I could pretty easily keep up with the high pace. 3 min rest and 1 min run periods.

5 x 7.5 mph + 5 x 10.5 mph.
Finishing by 1 min at 7.5 mph and 1 min 42 sec at 9.0 mph.

Plank, Pull down (cable) - 70 lbs, Seated Row - 110 lbs, Pec Fly - 115 lbs, Back Fly - 85 lbs, Abdominal Machine - 125 lbs

An easy jog.

I took a tetanus shot yesterday (been 10 years), and I was perfectly fine even through my strength training. Today though, it felt like someone had repeatedly punched my shoulder, and I had problems lifting my arm. I also felt like a had a mild cold. These are all expected side effects, but it was not conducive for a good training session. Pushed through as much as I could, and I am pretty happy with it considering.
