| Hmph, ankle hurts a lot more this morning than it did yesterday. How depressing. | ||
| C • Aqua-jogging is pretty hard... 3 | ||

| This sucks. | ||
| Strength/Core (ankle stuff) 5:00 [1] | ||
| Just a wee bit of balance and motion, testing it out.
No problems, so I'll keep it up. | ||

| Running (water) 31:30 [2] | ||

| I've been thinking of incorporating this whole water running/aquajogging thing into my training for a while, and having a week or two of being prevented from running seems to have been the perfect impetus to actually go out and try it. Surprisingly, it was approximately a thousand times less boring than I thought it would be.
I seem to have some coordination issues that I hope will work out over a few sessions. Mainly, I can't get into a groove of harder effort. Part of the problem is also that both ends of the lap lanes are shallow, so I can only really use the middle part, back and forth, so it's hard to get going and keep it up. It would also help to have some waterproof iPod thing. I mean, it's less boring than a treadmill, but not by *that* much. | ||

| Went to the doc today, just for giggles. He wanted x-rays since he was concerned that my ankle was still tender. Seems like overkill (more of that docs doing more than they should stuff, I guess) and they showed nothing interesting, as I expected. Didn't have much concrete advice about how to tell when I could start doing stuff and how much or what else to do to ensure a great recovery. So, as soon as the swelling is gone and it doesn't hurt to do so I will go for an easy run. | ||

| Travel day back to Tucson from Portland. I was done with work related stuff early enough this morning to make it back to the hotel in time for (a second) breakfast, which gave me plenty of time to work more on updating the Sprint Series Standings. The good news: about 50 sprint results processed in the last couple of days. The bad news: there are more! I expect to post an update tomorrow.
My only exercise today consisted of walking from the hotel to Powell's Books and back. And, of course, walking around the store itself. ;-) | ||

| Wow, a thousand times better this morning than yesterday! I got out of bed and stood up without shrieking! In fact, it's just uncomfortable and slightly swollen today, so I imagine I will be able to put my boots on. :-) | ||

| :( Walking is painful and awkward, at least early this morning. I was hoping to at least be able to walk a shorter course today, but I'm not that much of a masochist. And I want to recover. Bummer. | ||

| Spent the morning at the finish, which was pleasant enough except for hearing the reports from several early runners that they arrived at some of their control locations before the controls did.
So, there were problems this weekend. I think COC is aware of them and I hope they go along with the After Action Report idea. And I hope people remembered to mention the things that they did like so that COC is aware of that, too. This all makes me wonder if it isn't worth trying (and I mean really trying) to establish a USOF event controller program. Not just course consulting, but event controlling, like the IOF has for WREs and like what many other countries seem to have. We can't be sure that it would have made a difference this weekend, but maybe just having someone from the outside ask the questions would have prevented some of the issues. | ||
