| Up to the power line and back. Windy and cool, feeling ok, well rested as usual and lots of ballast to deal with any gusts.
Damn, training twice in one week. What's going on? Actually it occurred to me that what I was really doing was fulfilling my part of the WOC challenge, where good results by the USA team require certain amounts of training by the rest of us. So today's requirement was at least 20 minutes in honor of Sandra making the A final. Tomorrow's will be at least an hour for each team member making the long A final. Monday's will be at least 35 minutes for each team member making the middle A final. Haven't worked out the challenge for the individual finals yet, but for the relay, the challenge gets real serious, if we beat the Canadians, I'll head out for at least 10 hours. | ||

| Back down to Osbornedale for more field-checking for the Relay Champs. Finished the basic work, checking and sometimes rejecting points, plus a bunch more mapping. Now have to draw stuff up and see if I still like it a few days from now.
Terrain should work well. A lot of really nice woods, even in the summertime, a little bit of thicker stuff, a few open areas. And the logistics should work well too. Of course you never know until it's over. Approximate course lengths (all subject to change) -- Yellow (maybe a couple versions) 2 km Orange (maybe a couple versions) 3 km Brown 3 km Greens (4 versions) 4-4.5 km Reds (2 versions) 5.5-6.5 km 4-point teams: green-orange-green-red 8-point teams: orange-yellow-green-red 12-point teams: orange-yellow-brown-green The plan was to run a course after I was done. Hot and muggy, just didn't feel like it.... | ||

| With Phil, over to the gate, up to the hairpin, back via S curves and the power line. Legs felt ok for most of the climb, but then getting sore towards the end. Felt like I hadn't run for a long time. Glad the run wasn't any longer as I was starting to bonk. And if it had been usual summer weather instead of the mid 70s and low humidity....
Just haven't been motivated for any real training recently -- legs are fine for walking/hiking, just not for running. And the G is out of control. Need to get my act together. | ||
