The hamstring in my left leg has been painful since Wednesday, but not hindering enough for me to want to log it as an injury. I do think it has potential to become an overuse injury, though, so I've been taking Ibuprofen and icing my leg.

Event: CascadeOC Ultimate Orienteer #1: Middle
 

I had a great run today! I was very consistent; going right to most of the controls and not making any big mistakes.
Before my run, Mike told me to go a bit slower and try navigating to each control by compass to practice for Texas. I found that a bearing worked for some of the controls, but about half the time it was better to take two or three bearings to attackpoints along the way to avoid cliffs.

Fast, easy run.

Warm-up, intervals, cool-down.
Today I tried 2:00 intervals with 1:30 rests (6 times). This seemed more effective than yesterday's; by the end of each interval I was out of breath and I had to push myself on the last three.

Warm-up, intervals, and cool-down.
I tried 1:30 intervals, with 1:30 of rest in between each one (6 times). At the end, I wasn't very tired, so I'm not sure if these intervals were effective.
