Training Log Archive: Mr Wonderful

So it seems EventRegister emails don't successfully arrive in everyone's inboxes, for example, Ken L and Michelle G. Hopefully there are not any severely disappointed people arriving at Maybury today. I added a note on the refunds and sent a redundant email from my yahoo aliased to registrar@smoc-runs.com to people who had email addresses but weren't payers to hopefully cut them off at the pass.

Tied some tags for someone who asked very nicely. I don’t think the 9.6 is too much; I did 6 with a lot of walking

Postponed night o.

DNR covid commission interpreted the rules as 25 person max, including hosts, so that'd be 23 racers. We had almost 60 signed up.

Thought a little about splitting over two days, but that still means kicking out at least 10 people.

The one thing I didn't ask about is if MetroNav could have an event in a separate parking lot. And maybe Lost Arrow in a third lot. That would have covered everyone.

So looking at 12/19, 12/31, 1/2, 1/9, 1/16, 1/23, 1/30. Comments welcome.

C • It's a pity, the weather wo... 6

Monitoring period complete! It mostly wasn't too bad, once I got settled into it.

Hard starting in front of BJ and Tim, knowing you are going to get rolled through. They are both gazelles. I tried to match BJ for a few strides, and that worked for all of 10 seconds.

Biggest bobble on #14, crossed over too early. Some imperfect route choices (turned off too early for #2...or look at Tim's route...too late!).

Fun times, I missed the rain so it was just windy.

I wore my active ankle, no real discomfort and no further strain. Ankle has been good the last four days.

I removed a quality, >0.5 in thorn from my shin when I got home. Gaiters were not enough to stop that!

Garmin says I need just 3.5 days to recover.

Picked up from one of my favorite areas (SW corner, the finish for most of the courses).
