Core strength 6:00 [3]
Challenge Frisbee Daily.
Road running 38:00 [3] 4.3 mi (8:50 / mi)
shoes: Adrenaline 15
Goddard perimeter road at noon. I deliberately ran slowly and tried to keep soft feet, for what has turned out to be my highest mileage week in some time (not counting biking). The weather has been great for midday runs, but cycling has taken a holiday due to cold mornings.

Frisbee Daily Challenge.
Trail Running 48:00 [3] 5.2 mi (9:14 / mi)
shoes: Adrenaline 15
Greenbelt Park Perimeter Trail. Another 10 degrees warmer than yesterday, that's 2 days in a row. Should have been in shorts but I didn't have them with me. The temperature can't continue very long on this slope.
A butterfly, a small brick-red anglewing of some kind, flew up in front of me on the trail. I lost it in the sun and didn't get much of a look. These species overwinter as adults and sometimes fly around on a nice day.

Road running 47:00 [3] 5.5 mi (8:33 / mi)
shoes: Adrenaline 15
Noontime run around Goddard. This run felt unusually good. 34 deg, sunny, the clothing system was perfect and all body parts were happy. I wasn't even going to bring my running stuff with me, but I just read in the paper that Joan Benoit Samuelson is running every day all winter in Maine, ticking off 2:50 marathons and about to turn 60. So c'mon, get going.

Orienteering race 1:14:57 [3] 7.8 km (9:37 / km) +230m 8:22 / km
shoes: Icebug olx 2nd
QOC Swanson Road Red. I did some course consulting for today's event. The course was straightforward, both technically and physically, and the running was very fast over open terrain, even through the light green parts. None of which prevented me from making a 3-minute mistake on the next-to-last control, attacked from near the water stop on the trail and expected to see the remnants of the old fence, but never did. In fact I had crossed it early and pushed on through the light green until I was no longer sure of my location. I went most of the way back before heading in the right direction, using the compass this time.
