Cycling 1:10:00 [3]
I managed to sneak in an hour of riding before we headed out. I did the Salty Steven singletrack, and also all of the Red Dog except the second-last bit due to time constraints. The new bike setup worked well, on this highly tricky trail.
Also ran into K/O around 11:30. She started out with Thumbs-of-death at 5AM, and kept going since he stopped at 8AM, for a 6 hour run!

Orienteering (Course setting research) 2:00:00 [1]
Helped Bash scout an upcoming Sprint course. The dogs enjoyed some serious wallowing in ponds.

Strength (Home Gym) 1:00:00 [2]
Workout #3. Have to get ready for the Feats of Strength at Phatty and LeAnimal's party!
Cycling tempo 2:00:00 [3]
Lots of rain this AM so Bash and I did a tempo ride on the rail trail. I did a bit extra.

Note
Does leading a Passover dinner that goes to midnight count as an endurance event? Certainly dealing with that amount of food has to count for something.

Running (Commute) 40:00 [1]
Another easy trot with T-dog, who's a bit tired from yesterday's run with Bash.

Cycling (Commute+) 45:00 [2]
Left a bit early to do part of the Salty Steven Singletrack. The new big front wheel's good for rolling over big stuff, but slightly less agile in the tight corners.

Back home on the rest of the singletrack.
Good test of my minimalist rack, bouncing over 30 cm logs with a backpack full of computers etc. It failed the test, but that's the idea before we race with it.

Running (Commute) 40:00 [1]
shoes: Ecco Receptor
Pokey commute with T-dog, but it's a recovery day.
Strength (Core) 40:00 [2]
When I got home, Bash had just started the Hard Core DVD:( I was hoping to join her when she was almost finished, but no-o-o, we have to groan through the whole thing. I guess the GRR uses some core, as it was a tough one today.

Running race (GRR) 4:24:00 [4] +760m
shoes: Icebugs 2
GRR with Bash and Hingo.
Had a good race, in great weather.
In the matrix Hingo and I navigated while Bash ran the trail and road, but we still found things OK. The only real error we made in the race was when Hingo and I were out front near CP 10C.
We leapfrogged the Tools and Fubar throughout the race, but our cunning navigator Bash was right on the money in the final advanced section and we got past them both.
This was our best ever overall finish, 8th I think. Both Bash and Hingo were really strong.

Running warm up/down 10:00 [1]
Should really warm up more, but there's just not time between the captain's meeting. I hate cold uphill starts- it takes me half an hour to warm up. I could have cooled down more, but was sore and hungry.
