Training Log Archive: Leanimal

The Salomon Bobkittens bit off a bit more than they could chew this time....well I did anyway. Crash would have been fine with another teammate I am sure. More race report to come but the quick and dirty version is that we went for 710 points and ended up getting 650 but didn't get back until 19 minutes after the cutoff so we ended up with 460 - ouch! With no water and a fitness level that just isn't there I couldn't hold on to finish our route and slowed considerably after 2 hours. We did go the distance though, hitting the furthest checkpoints and I still like our route if my body was in different shape. Tough day out for me, trying to get back into it and not exactly listening to some aches and pains that should be paid more attention.

I also thought Bash and Dee were going to go for big points so I set us up to challenge them....should have been a bit more conservative but a big congrats to them.

I will chalk this down as a great training day because I didn't like how I felt so it was hard to have "fun" after the 2 hour mark. Crash did pass me a delicious homemade chia bar that was to die for as I was bonking and eating snow.....highlight of the race!

Probably should have napped instead to try to get rid of this chest cold but it was so nice and balmy out tonight. I left Weeanimal with her Grandpa just as she started to cry. Luckily he has more patience than anyone I know and he outlasted her so that when I came home she was draped over his ample belly fast asleep.

Still sick - hoping to feel better by the weekend!

sick. Hacking cough with lots of phlegm. Mmmmm I am praying that Weeanimal doesn't get it or I can't see myself getting much sleep.
