| spiked:28/30c slept:8.0 weight:178lbs (injured) shoes: Black/Red Free Xtrain | ||
| The NurseryO, this year's Long Cold O, was longer and colder than usual. Distance here is
is not the straight line orienteering distance, but the distance measured in ODAD. My actual route was probably just over 30k, definitely the farthest I have ever run without stopping. Mostly flat, not too technical. Most interesting terrain was the baby apple orchard and the soft carpet of turf. Sharp pain in left foot which got so bad at about 3 hours that I almost quit. | ||

Thursday Jan 24 | ||
| Orienteering (armchair) 30:00 [0] ** | ||
| Putting in the RouteGadget for last weekend.
GNC has the RG categorized by class, which is not as interesting as it would be if everyone on the same course were put together. Luckily, there were 6 or 7 people in my class, but I still would like to see how I worked it out against the others on Red. What did I learn? I didn't have time to analyze things as I did for the Champs, but it is clear that I have gone back to running too fast for my navigation and my conditioning. I started off with 2 big mistakes on day 2, but it didn't upset me too much, I went on to run decent legs after that. Of course, I knew all that without RG. | ||

| spiked:8/11c | ||
| GNC day 2 Red Started off by blowing the first two controls big time. Calmed down after that and only made a few small error after that.
Course was not very exciting in the middle part; seemed more like a sprint than a classic. Pulled a muscle behind my knee. | ||

| GNC day1 Red course After another 3 hours of driving, we arrived just as they were taking down the starts, but
we were able to start right away. Only one major error; I ran off the map at #9. My legs were just too cold for running. Despite the freezing rain, it was a lot of fun. My braced ankle held up well. Had some blurry vision near the end due to unexplained blood in the eye. | ||

At the indoor track. 5x200 (41,40,37,35,33) with walking rests ranging from 3 minutes to 8 minutes. I had meant to do more and slower with not so much rest, but the track was so crowded with widebodies (baseball team?) that it was very difficult to find a window of opportunity to fit in a lap. I am not sure that this workout accomplished anything besides irritating my ankle. | ||

| Orienteering 2:15:00 [3] **** | ||
| spiked:12/19c slept:6.5 shoes: White Waffle Racers | ||
| At Pontiac Lake. No snow. Ground slippery. Pretty thick even in January. Re-ran first half of green course, forward and backward with variations (did repeats on a few legs and hit some controls out of order). Had a hard time, but one positive: hills don't slow me down so much.
