Tuesday Feb 9

7 AM

Running (road) 24:19 4.06 km (6:00 / km)
ahr:155 max:173 shoes: Leo (Inov-8 F-Lite 230)

Morningjog, just after sunrise. Upper 30s and clear, nice morning. I listened to music on my Shuffle, which seems to be the same music I had on it in Djibouti. Thankfully, my tastes haven't changed.

Monday Feb 8

5 PM

Running (road) 46:32 6.47 km (7:12 / km)
ahr:128 max:155 shoes: Leo (Inov-8 F-Lite 230)

Back in Tucson in time to go to MMM with Melissa. Nice night, upper 50s, clear. Melissa seemed stronger today than before (again). Now, if we can just get her to run a little more often...

Got some new shoes today, including the ones I wore tonight, the F-Lite 230s. They're very similar to the X-Talon 212s: very light, 2-arrow, sticky rubber. Just a flat shoe for urban/hard pack. But the sizing doesn't seem to be exactly the same, since these seem to be a bit long on me. I don't seem to have a problem anymore with running in slightly big shoes, so I'll just keep these and see if I can't try on a size smaller some time for future pairs.

Sunday Feb 7

12 PM

Running (trail) 1:00:48 7.31 km (8:19 / km)
ahr:157 max:175 slept:9.0 shoes: Rory (Inov8 X-Talon 212)

Turned out I didn't have to go in to the base today and could work from the hotel. Which means I made the best use of my time and headed up to Big Basin, which should probably be called Big Ass Tree Basin. I think it's strange that they're called Redwoods, as if their most distinguishing characteristic is their color, not their size.

Figured my legs would be tired from the past two days so I headed uphill from the parking area. About 50, wet and cool, but no rain. Trails were pretty muddy and there were trees down (big ones) across the trail in many places, making it a bit sporty. Really nice.

4 PM

Hiking 45:00 [2]
shoes: Luke (Inov8 Terroc 308)

Afternoon hike with Lauren in Tilden. Out for about an hour. Really nice, again. If I were able to ignore the traffic - impossible - then I would consider someday trying to live in the Bay Area (again).

Saturday Feb 6

4 PM

Orienteering warm up/down 24:27 *** 3.79 km (6:28 / km)
ahr:154 max:183 11c slept:6.5 shoes: Rory (Inov8 X-Talon 212)

Met Rex and Tapio at Stanford after work for some fun O training. Rex designed a 'star' on the north end of the map, so I designed a warmup course to get us up there and Tapio a course to get us back. This was the warmup course, which we each took a turn leading, and was somehow much faster than a usual warm up.

Orienteering 16:56 *** 2.91 km (5:49 / km)
ahr:167 max:177 4c

Rex's star course, which I tried to run fairly hard, but I didn't really have it in me. Good thing it was flat.

Orienteering warm up/down 12:35 *** 2.02 km (6:15 / km)
ahr:164 max:176 5c

Tapio's course back to the start.

Friday Feb 5

2 PM

Running 1:14:41 13.04 km (5:44 / km)
ahr:161 max:176 slept:7.0 shoes: Rory (Inov8 X-Talon 212)

Got the guys I'm here with from work to drop me off at Joe's office once we were done. Ran around near the bay for a bit, then over towards Zan's office and up the trash hill there, then back to Joe's. Interesting enough scenery for the run to go by quite quickly. Perfect running weather, cool and no rain.

Felt great.

I used to think that my caffeine consumption had no effect on my sleep, but this little experiment may make me think differently. I seem to be sleeping better without the ddp. We'll see.

On the other hand, I'm doing exactly what I was afraid I would do, which is to occasionally go for some other sweet beverage (usually juice) rather than a diet soda. This is certainly preferable from a general health perspective, but it's not going to help me from a weight control perspective. 200 calories from a bottle of juice is >> 0.

Thursday Feb 4

Note
slept:5.0 (rest day)

In San Jose for a few days, and today is a rest day that I've had planned out for a couple of weeks. Only now that it's here, I don't want to rest. Bummer. I will use the time instead to find the places to run for the next three days. :-)

Wednesday Feb 3

6 PM

Running (road) 30:00 [2] 3.4 mi (8:49 / mi)
slept:8.0 weight:145lbs shoes: Rory (Inov8 X-Talon 212)

Stupidly long day at work, so all I managed to do was get in a quick run on base after sunset. Luckily I had my stuff with me (I was planning on a trail run in the afternoon), otherwise I don't know if I'd have made it out once I got home. I would have been more likely to just collapse and sleep.

Misty and low 50s out, but no longer rainy. Legs felt surprisingly good, as if I hadn't run a bunch the last couple of days. Nice.

So far so good on the diet beverage deprivation goal and the CF goal. I have played some really terrible CF, though. And I keep getting stuck in things. Upgraded to the latest version, hopefully that will solve that.
