 | Running 32:24 [3] 3.7 mi (8:44 / mi) | |
| shoes: Brooks Running |
| Ran from my apartment to the river and then did the Eliot-Weeks loop. I was feeling pretty tired for most of it, and even though it wasn't really that hot today I felt like I was having trouble with the heat. I'm guessing that's from getting used to it being cold in Scandinavia. It did feel a bit better than last time, though, so that's something anyway. |

| Orienteering 1:10:24 [3] *** 5 km (14:05 / km) | |
| spiked:11/15c shoes: New Balance Orienteering |
| CSU training at Franklin Park. The course went through a lot of green, and my Estonia training was screaming at me to go on trails whenever possible, which at Franklin Park is quite a lot. In an attempt to get out of this habit, I made some sub-optimal route choices, but I guess it's better to do this in training than at an actual meet. Control 2 was not in quite the correct spot, and I wasted 8-9 minutes coming back at the control from many different attackpoints. After coming back to the same cliff multiple times, I decided to move on. Other than that, the course was pretty good. |

| Running 32:17 [3] 3.5 mi (9:13 / mi) | |
| shoes: Brooks Running |
| Went running from my apartment to the river and then did the Eliot-Weeks loop. I was feeling slow and kind of tired. I'm not really over my jet lag yet. It's still hard to make myself sleep in the morning, but it works out pretty well because it means I can go running before work. |

| Elliptical 45:00 [3] 5.35 mi (8:25 / mi) | |
| |
| I got back from Europe last night and valiantly tried to stay awake late enough to get a decent night's sleep by watching the Olympics. It sort of worked, but I still ended up waking up at 5:45 this morning. I was planning on going for a run, but it was raining and my knee was kind of hurting from spending 9 hours in a plane yesterday, so I decided to go to the gym to elliptical instead. |

| Biking 1:00:00 [3] 11.14 mi (5:23 / mi) | |
| |
| Road Sanna's bikes from her place to a little past Sibelius's house and back. It was raining pretty much the whole time and the bikes were, as Sanna put it, not the best, but I had a good time. It was cool to bike in Finland, although we never actually managed to find Sibelius's house, just the turn off for it.
This is sadly my last day in Europe. I had a great time! |
