Orienteering race 1:48:38 14.66 km (7:25 / km) +582m 6:11 / km
shoes: O-Icebug Sisu 10.5
A lot sloppier than an average DVOA event, and a L-achilles pull on some under-fern deadfall at the 1km point made for a far sub-par performance physically, and not super satisfying technically.
Still, the competition was quite thin, and my navigation avoided major blunders, which resulted in a 3rd on the day.
Bugs sucked (and much worse so on Sunday) despite a reasonably heavy spray coat of DEET.
Later, the heat of the day, and/or my over-water under-salt re-hydration, (and failure to take pre-race Excedrin on this warm, humid, long race) contributed to a Migraine that had me nauseated strongly for about 12 hours, w/residual effects for 36 hours...
New York summer orienteering is rather risky in the heat/bug regard...

Running 1:02:50 9.7 km (6:29 / km) +332m 5:32 / km
shoes: R-NB 461 Black
Joy & Misery, with some extra loops, and a slow jog to the new VF Middle track and back with the kids earlier on.
VF Middle track is being repaved. With red-colored mushy gravel/mud crap to cover the grey mushy gravel/mud track they had before. Disappointed with the chosen material, so far... Angelica's even claiming skepticism of motives in this endeavor.

Running 40:19 7.86 km (5:08 / km) +108m 4:48 / km
ahr:130 max:145 shoes: R-NB 461 Black
Ran at 9pm, and it was blessedly cool. mid-70's and humid with a heat index in the mid to low 80's. Oh so nice, relatively...
All paved, w/headlamp and Wilson Park lights nicely on this evening.
Paved is historically not good for IT and it duly worsened a bit.

Running warm up/down 7:00 [2] 1.1 km (6:22 / km) +30m 5:36 / km
shoes: O-Icebug Sisu 10.5
Real-feel heat index of 90+, so decided on Green, so I could run hard, w/o just doing a death slog, and hopefully prevent a later Migraine (didn't work...)
Run to start. Head in cold water stream on the way helped quite a bit, but was still warm again by actual start.

Orienteering race 43:43 [4] 6.24 km (7:00 / km) +179m 6:08 / km
ahr:154 max:169 shoes: O-Icebug Sisu 10.5
Did Green, so could run a hard race despite the heat. Forgot to take Excedrin before start - should've on this hot day, and despite a trickle of 6 Excedrin after the race, I was Migrained by 5-hours after finish, incl. vomiting by 7-hours after finish. Not the worst I've had, but not fun. Anyway, back to the race itself.
Ran a normalish race pace when rocks allowed. Not too much slowing due to heat.
#2 was esp. bad. #3 was esp. good on a hard attack. Some details: http://www.attackpoint.org/raceanalysis.jsp?sts=72...
Some minor issues elsewhere, but all-in-all, my best scoring DVOA run of the year (127) pushed me up to 1st.
Newish shoes in 2nd O' race - toe-box now tight enough with new lacing. Heel blisters again though, perhaps due to somewhat loose and rubbing heel? Will need to tape heel in future with these shoes... :(

Strength 10:00 [1]
7/20/10 set, less the DT, while lifegaurding Oriana & Emma, who spent 1.5 hours in the pool this hot afternoon. (That likely didn't help my head either, BTW.)
IT got pinchy after this, slowly worsening for 2 days (so far) and I'm not sure if was triggered by this Strength set (as there was, as often, an immediate increase in pain when doing this w/o IT pain beforehand...), or if it was the race :(
