Cycling 35:30 [3] 9.1 mi (3:54 / mi)
Orienteering race 1:23:57 [5] *** 6.4 km (13:07 / km)
spiked:12/21c shoes: Integrator
Red at Webster Park, fails left and right...
Not sure how I missed 2 - but am glad to have been witnessed going right by it... I've always wondered how that happened. In hind sight, I think I had a good plan to pass through the area of the control, but no plan to get to the exact location of the control. So when I was there, I wasn't confident I was there - and kept going because if I didn't see the control, I must not be in the right location... [Which means I had a poor attack point...]
Think a similar thing happened again at 10 - I was right at the corner of the electric fence and dialed in. All I had to do was go the last bit. Again I didn't see the control. When spotted headed S, that was because if the control wasn't where it should have been, I was moving along the ridge to find it. I was definitely scanning along the edge of the vegetation line.
The failure at 15 was again the last 100m. I was on a trail, took the cutoff and crossed at an indicated point - perhaps that was not the actual indicated point... I crossed left of where I thought and ended up wasting a lot of time sorting it out.
My troubles at 17 came from confusing an early trail Y with the Y at the control - and the terrain happened to line up with a dry stream bed in about the right position relative to the actual. Again it took much to long to sort it out and get back on track. I think I was frazzled by this point.
On 18 I was fatigued and slow in the heat and wasn't moving at the same speed. I jumped to the right early and wasted time before continuing on.
Definitely not my best outing - and biking over to the park has got to figure in on the fatigued thinking. (but no other choice in the matter)

Morning Run (pavement) 42:35 [3] 4.0 mi (10:39 / mi)
shoes: New Balance 479 - V3
Recovery walk for Rachael, slow run for me. (but better recovery for me;-)
Discovered I have some referred pain. I was dealing with a pain in my big toe yesterday - sensitive to the light touch, as if it were swollen. Found a web site that indicated two points on the shin that if sore cause that sort of pain - and guess what - pressing around there was painful. (and not on the other leg)
Going to look for a book on that topic;-)

Recovery run with Rachael. 9:16, 9:12, 9:13, 8:36
Since we didn't really speed up, perhaps that last mile is slightly shorter in addition to being mostly downhill...

Morning Run 1:07:51 [4] 10.4 km (6:31 / km)
shoes: Vibram Treksport
6 x 1600m intervals at the track with Rachael, 800m warmup.
Almost all 400 m increments of the workout were at 2:09 +- 1-2 seconds. (except last which was off 5 sec) 1:10 - 1:20 between them.
I did some work on the first 4 laps matching her stride for stride (slightly longer for me as I was in lane 2 the whole time) The work was getting her (very fast) stride rate. Had to stop in the 5th and 6th as my rt leg was tightening up under the stress.
