10 days in Switzerland, not enough to turn me into a punctual person (maybe I shouldn't spend that time hanging out with Marc?) 5 minutes late to CSU A-meet meeting, even though I was pushing hard.

an excellent dinner and a good meeting. I'm behind on my a-meet tasks.

Note

I'll sort this out later. More important is doing some laundry and fighting some jetlag.

Congratulations to Marc and Sandra! An absolute blast of a vacation in Switzerland.

Once the rest of the crew were off to the airport, my aunt Anne, Sam and I headed down into Zurich and were met by my uncle Hartwig and we had a personalized walking tour of the city. Hartwig has learned every interesting fact about the history, art, architecture, politics etc of the area and he just walked us around showing us stuff :) it was an absolutely fabulous end to an already amazing trip.

Trail run 1:16:33 [2] 6.83 mi (11:12 / mi) +523m 9:03 / mi

Marc had planned to go for a morningjog and I was excited to join him, if a little nervous about getting up early enough to get an 8 am start. Marc was still feeling sick in the morning, but I was up anyway so I set out to rerun the route we did on Monday up to Hahnensee and so I grabbed my techno music and got out the door. I didn't have Cristina's shoes this time so I was running in my soccer flats, but that only became an issue on the way back down, where some more traction would have been nice.

An awesome goodbye view of the valley from the restaurant at the top, and then I ran back straight down the mountain along a snowshoe trail and landed back at base to help clean up and move our stuff out of the apartments.

Jumped on a bus with Boris and Kat to head over to the glacier again. Weather was fantastic, and we skied up from the bus stop to the glacier, where Kat clambered monkeylike among the ice boulders. Then we were running super late so Boris and I had to really burn all the way home. We almost made it back to Silvaplana by 2 pm :) but we did have plenty of time to make it to the trainstation and head for Zurich.

Heading to the airport. Very excited about the coming week. Am currently clean-shaven in deference to Sandra and Marc's wedding and it feels a bit weird.

To work. My crunches this morning were noticeably more sore after the video yesterday.
6 PM

Road run 15:17 [2] 1.13 mi (13:31 / mi)

Heading to the track for CSU running section. Stomach feeling hungry. Even loud techno music can't cure that.

Track 31:33 [5] 2.91 mi (10:51 / mi)

Very fun workout, ran with SGB as much as I could, he's a frisky Velociraptor though, so I couldn't always keep up. We were counting laps by counting nouns in series. For instance, SGB did Greek letters and I did the phonetic alphabet. Then we did days of the week, and then I was trying to do series of animals in progressing alphabetical order. It was very silly indeed.

workout was 800 - 2x (1000-600-400) - 200 all with 200 jogging rest.

2:31 - 3:10 (?) - 1:48 - 71 - 3:08 - 1:50 - 67 - 29

skipped the opportunity to run more 200s, and skipped the cooldown in order to get home.

Road run 37:36 [2] 4.02 mi (9:21 / mi) +84m 8:47 / mi

Track to the grocery store. I was going to pick up dinner, but Sam had already taken care of that so I just walked around getting essentials. Yeast, chicken, sausage, cereal, and ice cream.

now bedtime, eventhough I have 26 unreads. One must prioritize.

Strength 50:00 [1]

Did the arms and abs and stretching core fusion video that Sam got from the library.

Definitely humoring the ladyfriend, but it was kind of fun too. Wanted to see what the fuss was over this core fusion stuff. The arm exercises were quite tough for me and I dropped the 5 lb weights when I stopped being able to do the side flys.

Would have liked to go running, but I did other stuff instead. Plus a day off might help my heel blisters.

Snowy run to work in the morning. Lots of icy beard build-up.

Running to CSU training. Stopped for errands at Berman O-supply and the Harvard Market for a ski-o map holder and ice cream. sidewalks were slushy which made for slow going.

orienteering 1:10:50 [3] 7.5 mi (9:27 / mi) +73m 9:10 / mi

Street-o set from Lori's place. not much traffic, so it was kinda eerie with so few cars. I had some stomach issues so running quickly was a challenge. I also miscounted roads leading to control 3 ( I messed up twice) and was all turned around. Things went much better after that, just tootling along slowly.

Dinner afterward was fantastic. Props to Lori's ratatouille-esque pasta sauce :) Always good to see the crew.
9 PM

Road run 1:04:33 [1] 6.06 mi (10:39 / mi) +108m 10:06 / mi

Blah, GI discomfort still very much in evidence. So an epically slow march home. Still, jogging home was way faster than taking the subway home on Monday.
