Saturday Mar 29 |
| Running 59:00 [2] 6.02 mi (9:47 / mi) | |
| shoes: Asics Gel Cumulus III |
| running around some trails in belmont, starting from star market (southernmost point on track). metropolitan state hospital is an abandoned mental institution. apparently when it closed, they just drove the remaining patients downtown and dropped them off. but anyways it might make an interesting park-o map. the forest is ok now but I think it will be pretty thick in the summer. I also sortof fixed the problem with my gps antenna...one of the connectors was not screwed tight enough. |
| Running 10:00 [2] 0.75 mi (13:19 / mi) | |
| shoes: Asics Gel Cumulus III |
| [actually before the other run] a short run with bailey. I think he gets bored of running after about 15 minutes, and then he starts trying to stop and sniff everything. |
Friday Mar 28 |
| Running (terrain) 30:00 [3] 3 km (10:00 / km) | |

Wednesday Mar 26 |
| Running 3:00 [2] | |
| (injured) shoes: Asics Gel Cumulus III |
| injured, you ask? I guess I could be checking that every day, but that gets a bit old after a while.
my hip (or maybe upper-right thigh) felt slightly better today, and I wanted to see if running would make it worse. not really, but it didn't help. driving seems to make it hurt more, maybe its some kind of kink from 11+ hrs of driving this weekend. |
Tuesday Mar 25 |
| Bike 29:00 [2] | |
| |
| my stomach had some kind of knot in it this evening and something with my hip feels whacked, so I just biked, which was fine. |

| Note | |
| (rest day) |
| 70F outside . unfortunately it's now a rest week. I probably won't do much of anything until the weekend (Jr-training-camp). my back hurt a bit while running yesterday, but I think it was just tired muscles since it's fine today. |
Sunday Mar 16 |
| Orienteering 1:31:39 [3] *** 7 km (13:06 / km) +50m 12:38 / km | |
| ahr:162 spiked:9/9c |
| training at George Washington SF with biggins and brendan. I hung streamers, and they came behind and picked them up. there were no signs of horrendous underbrush, although it was a little thick in some places. the main problem was that it was 60F and there was a foot of melting snow on the ground, which made it extremely difficult to run. it was the sort of thing when you break all the way through every third step or so. I'd say the contours are pretty good, though, so I think we'll try going back in a month when the snow should be gone. |
Saturday Mar 15 |
| Skiing (xc classic) 30:00 [1] | |
| |
| alex had me convinced that she was dragging me to some art exhibit in wellesley, but instead we were really going to Weston for XC skiing. (whew!!) we skied for about an hour, but except for a few sections that I did by myself it wasn't very strenuous. I felt a bit tired afterwards, so I think that counts as some training. she did very well considering it was her second time on skis. |
| Running 21:00 [3] 2.4 mi (8:44 / mi) | |
| shoes: Asics Gel Cumulus III |
| around the neighborhood with bailey. includes some time jogging in place while he took care of doggy-business. |

| Bike 20:30 [3] | |

| in order to amuse myself I'm trying to do a 4-week periodization this season. this is the last (longest) week this cycle. not that it will help much without hard workouts, but maybe I will even be able to do some of those eventually. |

| Orienteering (night-o) 36:25 [3] *** 3.6 km (10:07 / km) +75m 9:10 / km | |
| spiked:13/15c |
| night training course (no markers) at boojum rock. the snow is fantabulous for running on. lots of fun. I brought the gps again, but it apparently stopped tracking after only a few minutes. I had the antenna duct-taped to the top of my headlamp. seems like if you lose reception the receiver displays a message box that you have to hit ok before it starts tracking again. obviously I didn't do that since it was in my pocket. pretty dumb if you ask me. |
