| DVOA meet at White Clay Creek, Red course.
It was more runners like course, was moving pretty good until #12 where I did big bubble. There was an extra trail which gave me hard time ... The thing I noticed, I didn't use my compass today. |

| Just a note: ran second weekend w/out taping ankle and felt very good, even next day. Have to admit that those 2 weekends were on easy terrain. |

Thursday Nov 2 |
| Trail-Grass Running 1:02:00 [3] 13.55 km (4:35 / km) | |
| ahr:129 max:142 slept:6.0 weight:66.5kg shoes: Inov8 RocLite 315 |
| Finaly got a chance to do some training. Tested another pair of new shoes - this time Inov8 Roclite 315. Those are trail running shoes and they fit more like track running shoes, light weight, with good bottom sole traction. So far, I'm satisfied. Will test them at some orienteering events. But they definetely can be easely damaged (I mean upper part) when you run through thorns. Good alternative for O-shoes w/out metal spikes. |

| C • So good sprint shoes? 2 |
Wednesday Nov 1 |
| Note | |
| slept:6.0 (rest day) |
| Business trip again. Was tired for any training.
As I would say "Bad news - good news".
Anyway, sprint courses are finalized with only couple controls required additional field check before moving to a new features. Those are going to be extremely fast courses ("A" - 1.3km/10c, "B" - 1.75km/12c) using best terrain in the area, plus Sprint "A" is a very spectacular friendly:) |

| C • Too many business trips. 5 |
Tuesday Oct 31 |
| Road Running (Pavement/Grass) 1:04:00 [3] 13.02 km (4:55 / km) | |
| ahr:128 max:136 slept:6.0 weight:66.2kg shoes: Salomon XA Pro 3D (2006) |
| Ran on the pavement with some parts on grass with 2 loops around HS.
Got my lovely pair of Salomon shoes from REI. It's really one of the shoes I can buy and go for rogaine w/out hesitation.
Also bought pair of Inov8 Roclite 315 shoes for testing. Looks promissing even for light terrain orienteering. Have some concerns about top material, but we'll see. The bottom sole is designed for rough terrain. |

| C • So you got these cool off road shoes 2 |
