Some twinges from my right leg near the stress reaction spot of c. 2006. ARGH. I am extremely envious of people who can go out and run all sorts of long distances. :( I thought I had a modest build up this fall, am not super fat, and wasn't drinking much soda. why why why

1 PM

Orienteering 3:47:53 intensity: (3:08:25 @0) + (23:34 @1) + (12:27 @2) + (3:27 @3) *** 8.69 mi (26:13 / mi) +249m 24:05 / mi
ahr:110 max:161 10c slept:7.0 shoes: INOV8 285

Hid 10 flags at Bishop Lake. I thought they were easy on Purple Pen, but it seemed more challenging in the field.

Jeff and Shadow joined me.



Lots of issues - my printer went into twenty minutes per page mode. Also, it is apparently out of some ink colors. So I had a not very legible, faint, mostly blue thing. I took some pictures of the Purple Pen screen on my phone, but the one that turned out blurry naturally had four controls on it.

All flags have a reflective stripe so they can be used for night practice.



Excellent practice anyway. Hopefully I will tidy up the maps and get them out tonight or tomorrow.

ahr:146 max:163 slept:7.0 shoes: Brooks Ghost Blue

Harder to get out the door today. Maybe more sleep needed....

Cool until 20 minutes in, then roasting!
7 PM

Note

Tried to double, but I picked the wrong show so you couldn't hear a damn thing if I used either of the available pieces of equipment. Maybe a different show for next time. Maybe a cheap stereo for the basement to relocate speakers closer.

Biking 50:49 intensity: (3:13 @0) + (23:36 @1) + (23:52 @2) + (8 @3) 8.55 mi (10.1 mph) +2m
ahr:137 max:152 slept:7.0 weight:201lbs shoes: Old Red Schwinn Rocket

Brrr. Boots were a good choice! I was dragging on the fourth lap, which made it easy to rationalize calling it there under the guise of "getting to work early."

Front tire was completely flat at the start, and headlight battery was of unknown charge, so I kept it local.

Walking 40:00 [1] 1.5 mi (26:40 / mi)

Hiked with boots and dragging a sixty pound sled. Swamp was the hardest part. Very easy to stay warm. I should rig up a harness for this. And do it at Huron Meadows.

Objectives for 2013:

19:59 5k
1:34:59 half
Top 3 at SMOC meets
Competitive finish at a 24 hr AR
Host canoe o

Enabling goals:
180 lbs
3000 bike miles
1000 running miles
750 controls (can include setting/scouting)

I may come up short, but I tried aiming right at the mark in 2012 (finish 24 AR) and it was not successful. If I aim higher, and fall short, I'll still beat where I would be with less ambitious goals.
8 AM

Biking 50:51 intensity: (2:32 @0) + (9:01 @1) + (34:40 @2) + (4:38 @3) 7.91 mi (9.3 mph) +16m
ahr:142 max:163 slept:7.0 weight:204.2lbs shoes: Old Red Schwinn Rocket

Snow is a great sandy two track simulator.

ahr:150 max:174 slept:7.0 weight:202lbs shoes: Brooks Ghost Blue

Very narrowly avoided a combo breaking day off. It would've been easy, given today's schedule of non stop running around. :|

The stint through the dry swamp is great because the footing is extremely uneven. I picture hulking strong ankles being developed. Sometime I want to try to loop around the outside ride of it to see if it's somewhat runnable. I almost did tonight, but light was fading and I heard voices.

I also tested the traction system I got for Christmas. Unlike $6 specials from TJ Max, these stayed on for more than 400 meters, so they will be in my bag for Cabin Fever.
