| Easy jog to loosen up before heading to Chamois with Baby-O for a fun-filled weekend of camping and running. |

| Easy lunchtime run with Brian. G value is a bit inflated after a trip to Mangia last night. Worth every pound. Besides, a little extra in the tank for Sunday's 50K isn't a totally bad thing, even if it is just a "fun run". |

 | Paddling (Kayak) 2:01:00 [2] | |
| |
| On the Meremac from Greentree down to Fenton again. River is up quite a bit since two weeks ago so there was more current below the rapids. Failing to account for that had me paddling back up in the darkness. The rapids were moving at pretty much my top speed and it took nearly five minutes to get through the 100m chute. |

 | Running (Mix) 1:29:00 [2] | |
| weight:175lbs |
| Lunchtime run with Jeff. Took the powerline both ways this time so we could run a little slower and still be done in 90 minutes. Got to the top of Little CC Lake in 46 again and then we hammered back. He'll probably blame me for lifting the pace, but he started it. |

| Over to pool (long way) and back. Rather brisk morning. |
 | Swimming (Pool) 30:00 [2] | |

| Easy swim, just getting used to being in the water again. Included some off strokes. |
 | Orienteering (Woods) 1:36:00 [3]*** | |
| 35c |
| Series of control picking exercises at Babler (1:15). Ran each technical section at race pace, jogged easy in between. All the leaves are down, but there was still a lot of light green woods. Map. |

| Easy lunchtime run with Jeff. |
 | Note | |
| |
| Hmmm, less than seven hours and only 115 controls for October. That's shockingly low for what is usually our best month in the woods. Need to pay more attention to technique. |

 | Running (Trail) 2:18:00 [2] | |
| weight:174lbs |
| Knew I'd have to work this evening anyway, so I knocked off a bit early and got in two laps of the main loop at Pere Marquette and then one lap of the finish loop. It's a really pleasant trail at long run pace - there's actually a lot of easy running that gets missed when you're frantically trying to recover for the next hill without giving away too much time. |
