 | Shooting 3:30:00 [2] | |
| |
| Shot at 50 yards at an outdoor range; shot 240 rounds. changed to new sights both front and back and were much better. Also got the SCATT running so can do that later in the day.
|
| Running 10:00 [3]1.6 mi (6:14 / mi) | |
| |
| ran with some effort to increase my heartrate before shooting. First time missed all five target prone, but just barely four times, ran again and got 4 out of 5 standing which has usually been tougher for me. Did this four times shooting twice prone and twice standing. Ended up the second try getting three prone and three standing. time and distance an estimate. |
| Running 50:00 [1]6.0 mi (8:20 / mi) | |
| |
| easy run on the roads. first day temps in the low 80's. |

Thursday Aug 16 |
| Running 1:00:00 [3]12.82 km (4:41 / km) | |
| |
| Ran the DCRRC one hour track run so I did not have to train alone. Goal from the onset was to run eight miles and almost made it. Ran 1.75 miles as a warm up once the race started, 2 miles in 1330, walked and jogged a slow 400 and two miles in 1328 and finished with the cool down. Temps around 90 so eventhough the times a little slower versus the last time I did this workout had much better temps to deal with. Ran some with other people. Felt good finishing as I decided not to pick it up towards the end. Walked some before and afterwards just to move around plus stretched. Only about 12 people in the race and I was the only women. Participation has been higher in the past, but due to the heat I think people stayed away. Tim Good was lap counter along with two other people plus had the clock always running with time warnings at the end of the race. After one hour you put your stick on the track so the extra meters can be measured. Low key race with small prizes for everyone which with the heat everyone deserved. Missed the master's course record by 600+m. |

| Shooting 1:20:00 [1] | |
| |
| All the more time to shoot. Spent some time looking for ammo so arrived to the range later then planned. Shot 120 rounds. |
| Running 45:00 [1]5.0 mi (9:00 / mi) | |
| |
| trail run took it easy since I was lifting weights afterwards plus want to run the one hour run tonight for training. |
| Bike riding 5:00 [1] | |
| |
| Kept my legs warm on the bike before starting the plyos and weights. |
| Weightlifting 1:30:00 [3] | |
| |
| More plyos to help with balance and overall coordination. After that went to lifting- very erratic with poundage in some places made lots of gains and other places struggled with the weight. Trying to make an effort to eat more after I ran ate some so this was the fourth meal of the day and after this session ate again before going to bed. Very hungry this AM so ate a large breakfast. Kept thinking the shooting uses no calories might be using a lot since so much fine motor control is needed to be accurate. |
Tuesday Aug 14 |
| Shooting 1:20:00 [1] | |
| |
| Able to group the rounds as small as I possibly can with the quality of ammo that the range has. Unfortunately I can not bring my own ammo so I have to use with the range sells which does not seem to be the best. Zeroed prone and went to standing shooting which went way better. Shot 110 rounds. |
| Running warm up/down 25:00 [1]3.0 mi (8:20 / mi) | |
| |
| On the roads around the track. |
| Running intervals 35:00 [4]5.0 mi (7:00 / mi) | |
| |
| Ran 3 sets of 2 X 200 and one mile. Ran the 200's in 40 or 41 seconds and the miles between 605-610. Probably the coolest temperatures I have trained in since Nationals, but still probably around mid 80's. The rest of the distance is for recovery. Could feel some of what I did on Sunday ran fairly hard to get my heartrate high for shooting plus the driving. |
Monday Aug 13 |
| Shooting 15:00 [1] | |
| |
| Worked on setting up the SCATT program took a little more effort to get it running so only did some dry firing for a while. Need to work on it some to get it working properly. |
Sunday Aug 12 |
| Shooting 1:30:00 [2] | |
| |
| Drove to a teammate's farm to shoot. Nice to use the targets that are used in competition. He thought I should change the aperature back so we did I should have tried it first before changing. Shot better prone even with the change consistently getting 3 out of 5. The standing is still a problem in which I am so shaky especially after running and realized this was partly due to going to long without eating so had a ham sandwich and an Ensure (20 grams protein total) waited 10 mins and did better. Changed the aperature back to the one I had yesterday late in the session and immediately shot five rounds within 3 mm of each other at 50 meters. Shot better prone with this hitting four out five, but I was getting rather tired so the shooting was deteriotating (sp.) anyways. Shot another 150 rounds. He also gave me the high grade ammo that I will be using to zero and for the competition. Very nice set up to be able to role out of bed and shoot when you feel like it. With the computer program I have which needs to be set up I will be able to practice in my basement and the computer gives you feedback about your shooting. |
