 | Shooting 3:00:00 [1] | |
| |
| decided to hide away from the heat by going to the range and could shoot from a protective overhead roof to keep the sun off. WIth such a large membership a fair amount of target shooters that wear three layers of clothes to keep their heart from moving the gun showed up to train. I only added confusion when I wore just shorts, singlet and racing flats to shoot. never asked many questions at this range, but today was different. one man even wanted to watch me shoot so he did so through my scope and watched me put three bullets through the same hole. glad he was watching because I would have been wondering what happened to all my rounds probably thinking the wind had blown it clear off the target. The usual whirling winds. Even if the air is calm outside the area once you arrive the land just makes it windy. shot 250 rounds since some of the cease fires are quick since a match was on going and this has priority over the regular 30 min live fire. this time changed my standing stance slightly no longer holding the front ot the gun up by my hand, but with my knuckles. at first different, but got the idea quickly putting many rounds inside the smaller prone ring. |

| ran a loop near home after taking a cat nap to let the heat pass. Cut it to close since I wanted to run more just a strong storm was approaching. Temps in the low 90's which by the end dropped with added winds. Five mins after arriving home it really rained. |

Thursday Jun 5 |
| Running 55:00 [1]6.0 mi (9:10 / mi) | |
| |
| trail run. distance is an estimate. slightly muddy so kept it easy. some climbing and dropping in elevation otherwise fast since few rocks. ran with my new sneakers now they look like I have had them for three weeks. maybe would have run a bit more just getting dark and the park closes the gate. |
Wednesday Jun 4 |
| Running 55:00 [1]7.0 mi (7:51 / mi) | |
| |
| purchased a new pair of sneakers and this made my legs feel better. The other pair just did not have enough cushioning and contributed to my legs feeling beat up. really fluffy to run in. after the heavy rains and high winds checked out the damage- not much just so no one with power to their homes for the entire distance.
Placed 18th in the 40-44 age group in the 2007 end of year rankings. |
| Shooting 3:30:00 [1] | |
| |
| shot only a few rounds prone to set the windage and went to standing. Once I lfelt tired switched to prone for a while and back to standing. Tried some ammo that is incredibly cheap and shot way better then my medium priced ammo. had no problem overlapping five round at 50 yds even with the swriling winds. wanted to try it standing just realized I had enough. Shot 350 rounds. |

Sunday Jun 1 |
| Running tempo 20:38 [4]5 km (4:08 / km) +10m 4:05 / km | |
| |
| feeling much better for the fast stuff after one week, but not 100%. downhill mile in 612, mile two 645 which was a lot of uphill. Finished fourth women and 24th out of 551. temps around mid 70's with full sun. First the 10K went and about 4 1/2 mins later the 5K raced so we quickly caught up to the 10K group and had to weave around since only half of the street was blocked off. Did not split away until 2.4 miles. waited some for awards just really slow only had posted results as I was walking out of the gym. Planned to run the CCT 5K just could not get excited about running with 200+ people on a trail about 12 feet wide. glad I choose this race. |
