Note
slept:6.5 (sick)

This is my third time getting sick this year, and it's the middle of May! I'm pretty frustrated. Flu season is over. I should not be getting sick. Had swollen tonsils and a sore throat starting Sunday night, and then today I just got worse and worse. Originally had 7 miles and bouldering on the plan for tonight but by the time I got out of work, I knew neither was going to happen. In addition to the original throat issues, I also now have a fever, headache, and body aches. The body aches are the worst because no matter what position you're in, you feel miserable. I've only had them once before (the last time I was sick this year), and I don't want this to become a regular occurrence.
Pretty disappointed and frustrated because this was supposed to be another good week of training for me.

Note
slept:8.0 (rest day)

Wow I haven't hit as much mileage as I did last week since senior year of high school cross country. My knees definitely felt it all week, and my body is tired. Today is a much needed rest day. The plan is for another big-ish week, then more chill the week after.

Event: NEOC: Breakheart Reservation

1 PM

Running intervals 42:10 [5] 4.65 mi (9:04 / mi)
slept:4.5 shoes: Asics Gel-Excite 4 - Blue (#2)

Cut this down to 6x 200m (instead of 8). It's been a big week, and with the Billygoat tomorrow I didn't want this to be a huge workout. Felt good and speedy. Was going for 40 the first 4, then wanted to pick it up on the last two. Last one was flying but wouldn't have been able to do another at that speed.

Knees feeling painful. Plan is still for 200s tomorrow, but I may not do as many. Depends on how much icing helps.

Event: CSU Park-o: Franklin Park

6 PM

Running 16:31 [3] 1.88 mi (8:47 / mi)
shoes: Asics Gel-Excite 4 - Blue (#2)

Orienteering 25:24 [4] 1.91 mi (13:18 / mi)
17c slept:6.0 shoes: Asics Gel-Excite 4 - Blue (#2)

Should have brought my o' shoes, but I didn't want to run the 2 miles here on pavement with them on. Would have helped in the forest though, as some of the hillsides I was on were pretty questionable in my running shoes. Is the difference between regular running shoes and dobbs the same as the jump to metal spikes?
This was the most green I've ever seen Franklin Park, and it made for a good exercise in micro routes. Didn't get a ton of sleep last night, and while I made it through the day ok, I definitely felt it here.
