Orienteering 1:45:00 [2] 19.5 km (5:23 / km)
shoes: Icebug Acceleritas
Its getting mighty cold out, but at the last minute I decided to agree to go to the training at Granitti. But, I didn't want to run all the way from home, so I biked to Ristonmaa, and then ran from there. About 3k warm-up and cool-down. Then it was about a 13k course, mostly on roads and light trails. Even though it was very cold it was sort of tempo paced, hovering around 4:15 pace, and maybe 160 BPM, which is funny because it really didn't feel like it was that difficult.
Anyhow, again, it was quite cold, and I don't know why my legs were still sore, but they definitely were, and near the end, my one knee cap started to get very frozen and painful too. Eventually I finished the course and realized that, oh dear, I still have to run back to my bike, and THEN bike home. It was an awful slow run home, and then I put some extra clothes on and attempted to shiver home with most of my fingers pretty darn frozen and painful. There brief moments that I just wanted to lie in the snow and sleep (which would have resulted in a mild case of death). But I thankfully eventually made it and stuck my fingers in warm water which was crazy painful. I also discovered huge blisters on both of my heels from my Acceleritas, which I haven't experienced before. Now wearing shoes in not so fun either.
All in all, good workout!
