Green Course. Much better outing. Spiked just about everything and really the only thing I would do differently is run a whole lot more than I did. At least I was able to run a whole lot more than I did Saturday so that was very encouraging.

Green2 - Splits

Event: Western States + Intercollegiate Championships
 

Green Course. Made a big mistake on number one - looked up a reentrant that I thought was mine, didn't see the flag and so kept going trying to figure out where I had messed up only to return and find the control in the very same reentrant. Not a good start. Other than that, thhe course went well although I was less than precise in many places. I didn't run much of the course - I just couldn't find any rythmn to do much more than walk.

C • Nice job! 1

Wonderful dinner with Pete and Lex and various others; would have been even nicer if we could have stayed longer.

Green 1 - Splits

Trail-O in Tucson. Enjoyed it. Made some mistakes that were easily avoidable. Need to learn to take my time and really focus; not just get impatient and move on.

An abbreviated core workout. (Didn't get started until 10:50...)

TNT - woohoo, went for a run on the drive. First time in several months. Managed to do 4 miles without stopping in 43:33 so just a tad under 11 minute pace. I guess that pretty much says where I am these days. On the one hand I'm thrilled I've gotten this far - a month or so ago I wasn't sure I was going to be able to do this much. But it's also pretty depressing to realize just how slow I am.

Lost another pound.
