class at the rec center

Event: ROC - Webster Park
 

ROC - Webster Park Score-O. Upper hamstring (butt?) had been bothering me since my workout class over the weekend and I wanted to take it easy for the sprint, but trying to get them all was just too tempting. Unfortunately my route choice at the start kept me from getting #88 at the end of the hour. I think #81 to #82 to #88 would have been the best start, but I left #88 for the end and just didn't have enough time. Had problems with #94 and #91

Here is my route

Just tried out Quickroute for the first time and it flawlessly imported the GPS data. I had to adjust the route to fit the map a bit more than I would have liked, but overall it is an improvement in the process.

Distance is not straight line

C • 91? 3

ROC Webster Sprint - Crawled at least two times to get through veg. 'Nuff said.

'Boot Camp' Class at the rec center. It was a littel harder than last week....

Had a nice wind.....

Had some time available this morning but too much rain for outside activity

"Boot Camp" workout at the rec center (Kameron signed me up). It was a good workout, but probably more upper body work that I would have liked. It was nice to have a class outside and it was not too hot.

Event: ROC - Black Creek Park
 

Black Creek - Score-O - As bad as the vegetation was, I was at least mentally prepared for it. The heat on the other hand did me in. I was not in the best shape after finishing. Managed to grab 18 of the 24 controls, with a large counter clockwise loop from the starting pavilion. I was in the general vicinity of 2 of the 6 controls, but had trouble finding #3 and #9. I came to #3 early on and decided pretty quick to bag it since it was a 1 pointer and I had not really traveled out of my way. I had to give up on #9 since I was just about out of time. The extra two or three points would not have mattered since I was well behind William.

Out to Center Park via Church St and the trolley trail. Tyler rode along with me. It was nice to have company on the run.

Dodged the raindrops on the way in - hopefully I will be lucky with the weather on the way home.

Ride home - no rain but a few distraction due to wet pavement or soft tow path. Was able to trim almost 5 minutes off ride from this morning (same exact route). It is much easier to push hard when I am less concerned about how I appear or feel when I finish the ride.

C • Same EXACT route? 2

Hoping to get back into the swing of things...
