| Walking 28:19 [1] 2.0 mi (14:09 / mi) +20m 8:32 / km | ||

| Light walk - didn't mean to stress at all today, but it was faster that I thought. More proof for that "speed training raises your average" thought;-)

Saturday Jul 28 | ||
| Event: ROC - Score-O & Sprint | ||
| Orienteering race (Sprint) 18:20 [3] *** 2.3 km (7:58 / km) +17m 7:41 / km | ||
| spiked:13/13c shoes: Nike Air Terra Humara | ||
| Broke down and jogged the Score-O at Black Creek (after the 1 hr Score-O).
Felt good, but tired. Meant to get good splits, but didn't do well - in fact, it was a comedy of errors... Didn't start at the start, took all of 4 splits, and didn't stop when I finished;-) Ah well... Course wise, I think 11 would have been better placed N of the pond - I went past 3 to get to 11, and also past 13 to get to 12, reversed course and back to 13 and the finish. | ||

| Orienteering (Score-O) 59:00 [3] *** 4.0 mi (14:45 / mi) | ||
| spiked:13/14c shoes: Nike Air Terra Humara | ||
| Score-O at Black Creek. 35 points, 7th out of about 22.
Path: 11, 13, 12, 14, 15, 8, 23, 10, 16, 1, 22, 4, 17, 7, Finish. I initially misjudged the pond and started out heading NE along it - realizing I wanted to be across it. I reversed course and came back through the start - noticed someone heading along Green Rd and realized that would be a nice path to 11. On 15 -> 8, I should have crossed the swamp, but didn't - it was dry, but I went around. Stood around at 16 slightly off - could have used the magnifier there to see the details. (rest was nice though) Cut off a good portion of the path between 1 and 22. Was doing well on time when I got to 22 and noticed 17 beyond 4 - and decided to add it and maybe miss 2 & 3. Points were better that way, but if I had seen 19 beyond 3, the three of them were worth 2 more points;-) (Though I did a control near 19 last year and enjoyed the trip to 17 - plus the cross from 19 to 3 may have been tough (remembered that vegetation from last year). Distance wise 19 was a bit shorter, but that's the way things go. Had a great walk, workout, and O session. | ||

Sunday Jul 22 | ||
| Walking 1:41:26 [3] 7.5 mi (13:31 / mi) +275m 7:33 / km | ||
| shoes: Nike Air Terra Humara | ||
| Re-walk of yesterday's Embury / Creek / Empire / Park / Old Browncroft / Browncroft / Creek / Bunker Hill / Qualtrough route. This time I found the Y that I took that pulled me out of the creek bed early. It was about as I thought - a bit more walking at creek level - no extra climbs. Given it was very ripe with deer flies and prickly things, I well choose the first exit on purpose in the future and add more trails in the park proper;-) (I did use a repellent and needed to re-apply liberally as I went)
Splits (close in distance but not precise...): 1st mile: 13:10 2nd mile: 11:45 (down empire) 1/2 mile: 6:21 2.5+ miles: 37:08 (trails) 1/2 mile: 7:37 6th mile: 11:58 7th mile: 13:26 | ||
Saturday Jul 21 | ||
| Walking 1:32:13 [3] 7.0 mi (13:10 / mi) +275m 7:18 / km | ||
| shoes: Nike Air Terra Humara | ||
| Wonderful walk through the Irondequoit Creek area - Embury to Creek to Dyton to Empire to the park; through the park along the hills (white, yellow back to white trails) to Old Browncorft; back Browncroft to Creek to Bunker Hill and Qualtrough.
My good right arm had a workout killing two dozen deer flies through the woods, and I counted eight distinct hills to climb... Route above was the intent, but I appear to have taken a wider trail to Parkview and bailed out on the white trail, probably cut off 1/3 mile and a hill. That's ok - the deer flies were reaching a crescendo and I was getting frustrated with them. Need to use a repellent next time. (larger trail probably more used by the kids than the last section to Old Browncroft) Will likely keep this route in my rotation now - it felt like a 2.5 mile "warmup" (mostly downhill), 2-2.5 miles through the park with lots of climbs and descents (and the potential to go off trail when I'm ready), and a 2,5 mile warm down with the 10m climb of Bunker Hill for good measure... Noticed I don't pick up my feet as much walking, gotta watch out for the roots. Splits (close in distance but not precise...): 1st mile: 12:26 2nd mile: 11:33 (down empire) 1/2 mile: 5:53 2+ miles: 33:14 (trails) 1/2- mile: 5:16 6th mile: 11:25 7th mile: 12:26 | ||

Sunday Jul 15 | ||
| Event: ROC - Score-O at Irondequoit Bay Park East (changed) | ||
| Orienteering race 1:01:00 [3] *** 4.0 mi (15:15 / mi) +150m 8:29 / km | ||
| spiked:14/17c shoes: Nike Air Terra Humara | ||
| Walked the score-O at Irondequoit Bay East. Had a chance at nearly every control North of and including 14. Did so-so with my "splits" (not that they'd mean anything - just wanted to get into habit) - took 1/3 fine, took 1/3 late, and 1/3 very late or missed... Good workout up the hills.
On the way back I thought I had 3.5 minutes to grab #4 - apparently I needed 4, and arrived a tad late at the finish line, so it was a wash. Enjoyed the strategy aspect of which controls to go for and which to leave in case I had time. | ||

| Walking 24:15 [1] 2.0 mi (12:07 / mi) +20m 7:18 / km | ||
| shoes: Nike Air Terra Humara | ||
| Found a pace of 85 s/m - more forward hips, faster leg and arm action, lighter steps. Going to try to work that and get comfortable with it.

| Got myself a new watch with split capabilities. Going to start using it to get splits in training so I don't forget in races;-) (had it at the sprint, but never used it...-(
14:16 13:44 14:00 13:21 (not that these matter... Counted 69 paces / minute and then did some "experimenting" while walking to see what it would take to get the pace up - I'm going to have to research and find some exercises, as it looks darned hard to get to 90...) | ||

| Had my first post-op visit with the Dr yesterday - things look good, they took out the staples.
I've got some simple exercises for the arm / shoulder for 5 weeks and then return. Other than the defined exercises, it's to be kept in the sling. Walking continues to be aok, so I'm going to see what I can do at that level to keep my general condition up. | ||
