| Event: Kentucky Camp / Greaterville | ||
| Orienteering race 1:38:44 [2]8.6 km (11:29 / km) | |
| Red course set by Leif Lundquist at Kentucky Camp / Greaterville in the lower southeast foothills of the Santa Rita Mountains. I was the event director, for this and the following day's sprint courses. We had a good number of people (for TOC) at today's courses, but the sprints were sparsely attended. People might have been scared off by the "sprinting" or not inspired to come all that way for shorter courses.
Heard a rumor that some scandinavians, perhaps Marc Lowenstein (sp?) included, are considering coming to Tucson next winter to train. That would be a good idea, imho. Anyway, that got people arguing about whether or not to put on an A meet with WRE. (I'm actually not sure of the distance - might be less.) A lovely Arizona day, sunny, breezy. Nice to be orienteering, and great to be in such a lovely place, and fun to hang out with the Tucson crowd. | ||

Muffin, medium Dunkin Donuts decaf. Didn't feel all that great after a day of plane travel. Day 14 CCDDDDEE | ||

| Running 8:00 [1] | |
| To the gym. Wore my Sarvas again, and they were ideal, because all the slush and standing water froze overnight. I bought the Sarvas thinking they might be good for a rogaine because they have both spikes and cushioning, but the heels are a bit loose on me so I'm leary of trying. The Sarvas were an AP-inspired purchase, along with the iPod shuffle, the DDR dance pads, and the Hard Core DVD (ordered yesterday). It's kind of expensive hanging out on AP. Which reminds me, I want to send in a check to Kenny. | ||

| Work commute. Wore my Sarvas. A bit messy out - wet heavy snow. Sleety snow was coming down in the morning. Got up early to make valentine poems and heart-shaped french toast. | ||
| C • Inspiration 9 | ||
| Shoveling 30:00 [2] | |
| We were outside for longer, but much of that time was spent engineering a free path to a storm drain. This was the suckiest "snow" I've ever shoveled. | ||

CDDE Day 12 My beloved neighbor Ann Marie couldn't get out to do more shoveling this evening because she was on her own with three kids on a school night. So instead we finished her shoveling and she baked her super delicious brownies, which arrived just as I was sitting down with a cup of tea, and they were all fresh with that shiny flaky crust on top and honking walnuts sticking out here and there, and all warm and chocolate smelling, so I got a D. | ||

| Running 25:00 [2] | |
| I was cold. | ||
| Note | |
| I am considering going either to the NC meet 3/2-4 or the MO 6-hour rogaine 3/3. The mini rogaine requires less time away from home, but I'm drawn to the idea of running regular courses with more pressure. But maybe I'll just stay home. I need some advice. | ||

| Orienteering 20:00 [1] | |
| On a frozen lake. Easy course, with 3 kids in tow. Walking on a lake was really cool; we stopped to marvel at the ice a lot.
Wasted a bunch of gas not taking the shortest route to get there. | ||
