 | running race 43:00 [4]10 km (4:18 / km) vdot: 47.7 | |
| |
| Not sure of my actual time yet...still waiting for the results, but I had an awesome race. It seemed really long, except so short at the same time, the km's just kept going by so fast, cept I was hurting!!! :P The start was a lot of fun dodging in between people. Wanted to do 4 1/2 minutes a km, so we would've just followed the 45min bunny, but after the first km, I said "Screw the bunny!!!" Didn't see him after that!!! :P Had enough kick at the end to have a pretty good sprint in, and even passed a few people that had been just ahead of me the while race!!! Great satisfaction to have finished under my goal!!! |

Thursday May 24 |
| running race (steeplechase) 5:49 [5]1.5 km (3:53 / km) vdot: 46.0 | |
| |
| PB so far for the steeplechase, although it seemed like my worse. Got cramped up on the 3rd lap and had to fight to keep the girl that was just behind me, still behind me! She was dieing too, so I wasn't going to let her pass, she was the difference between going to EOSSA and not!!! My "step rolls" went pretty well on the water pit, I think I got it the 2nd time, and I can't even remember the 3rd since I was in so much pain! |
| running race 5:22 [5]1.5 km (3:35 / km) vdot: 50.3 | |
| |
| Another PB although only by 1sec. It was soooooo hot, and all the wind did was dry out your mouth, so still, it wasn't the best of races. Didn't have any heart to run, and as long as I stayed in 5th, I'd qualify...so that's what I did. No kick at all at the end. |
| running race 1:10 [5]0.4 km (2:55 / km) | |
| |
| 4x4 relay, again not sure of my exact time since they just do the 4 runners combined. Had a strong start, but couldn't keep it until the end. Total time was 4:34, so the whole team is going to Belleville!!! :) |
Wednesday May 23 |
| ultimate 1:00:00 [2] | |
| |
| Had a little tournament with 4 teams...our team didn't win, but it was still a lot of fun. We played three games, I got one point, pulled once, and ran around a lot. Really wish they passed to girls more!!!!!!!! |
Tuesday May 22 |
| running 40:00 [4] | |
| |
| Ran down to Notre Dame track with Molly biking along. DId a warm-up and stretching before started the "hurdles." We had brought a broom handle, so Molly on her bike would hold it out as I came running along, I'd hurdle it, keep running while she biked ahead for the next hurdle. Really funny to watch, but it worked!!! Then did a 1500m time trial... 5:47...not the best, but ok. |

| orienteering race (long) 1:19:25 [4]*** 8 km (9:56 / km) +200m 8:49 / km | |
| spiked:9/13c |
| Had a really good race, except for the 100m from the controls that I messed up on a few. The first 3 were great, really careful going into control 3 cause it was a bingo one. My route to 4 was good but I went up the wrong spur, and therefore was in the wrong re-entrant and just messed up the whole thing. It was sooo green in there, so I started bailing back out to the swamp, but found the right re-entrant and hit the control from there. Worried about running off the map going to 5 cause it was really hard to tell which hill you were on, but I practically tripped over the fence which told me exactly where I was. Again, I messed up within 100m of the control cause I couldn't see if the spur continued or not. Relocated off some cliffs, but then I started heading in the wrong direction trying to get to the trail!!! The next 4 controls were fine, kinda messed up my route to 10, but 11 was fast, and then blew 12!!!! Was going way too fast and went too far down the hill, hit a fence, went back up, missed the control again going too far to the left into the dark green. I finally saw it coming from the right side, but wasted 2 minutes which what was between me and first place!! :P Really fun race though!!! Great way to finish off the weekend...with a day to recover!!! |
