| Dad, Ross and I met up with Cristina at Prospect Hill for some orienteering. Ross and Dad planned out a course with 21 controls. We started at unknown intervals, then all ran and met up every 5 controls. It was a fun way to constantly be running with others and racing to be the first one to the point. I was the first one to #5, even after going to 5 before 4. Then Cristina beat us all to #10, as Ross and I were standing around totally in the wrong spot. Ross got to #15 first and dad was first to the finish. It was all very fair :) Beautiful weather, which was a change from the rain that was predicted. |

| Waited for Ross to come home from work because I really didn't feel like going out in the rain by myself. Met Ross at Hammond Pond. We decided to run an old night-o course that was set, although flags and the like are no longer out there. |
| Orienteering 31:00 [3] | |
| shoes: Pro 1 O shoes |
| I was behind Ross until #4 where I ran down the wrong trail, and then hesitated at the wrong feature. Proceeded to "find" #5, only to realize as I was leaving it that I was way off. Took awhile to relocate, and managed to get rather lost a few controls later, and completely blew by the last control. Ross beat me by 6 minutes.... and I spent a great deal of time standing around. Not the physical workout that I wanted it to be, but it was good orienteering training... although I should probably sit down and figure out what went wrong, because I'm really just training bad habits. |

| Note | |
| |
| No running today. Spending the afternoon in the library trying to concentrate but getting very sidetracked by things like attackpoint. If I get enough work done tonight then I think I'll have time for a quick run tomorrow. Of course that means getting back to work... soon... Having the whole afternoon really just means I can waste more time. I can't start working hard until I only have an hour left and about 2 hours worth of work. Then it all gets done :) |
