| Orienteering 36:07 [2]*** | ||
| I went over to the Model area this morning since I arrived too late last night. It was enough to confirm that it's the same type of terrain as at home, and that the downed trees weren't really a big obstacle. Plus, it was nice to get out for a little warmup. I was surprised at how many people were already in the park at 7:30 am. | ||
| Orienteering race 46:51 [4]*** 4.27 km (10:58 / km) +190m 8:59 / km | ||
| Red F21 at Reedy Creek, Umstead State Park, Raleigh, NC.
I would say that I am satisfied with this run...not exactly overjoyed...but satisfied. My lungs did hurt from my cold, and it was a little tough to breathe, but my navigation was pretty good. I messed up on #9, mainly because somewhere along the way, my brain switched to thinking that I was heading to #10. So, I was scouring the north side of the spur just east of #9, thinking that I was looking for the ditches at #10. Finally, a check of my compass...and the realization that I was looking for the wrong control!...set me back on track. Just a little frustrating. It was quite warm (probably in the mid-60s), and I could feel that I hadn't run in warm weather in quite a while. The course was a lot of fun despite my brain fart. You did a great job, Peggy! I can't wait to see what tomorrow, and 10+ km., feels like. | ||

| Note | ||
| I was not as successful with my training in February as I was in January. A combination of travel, illness and cold weather. I agree with BorisG...here's to a better March!

| Note | ||
| Well, I got over my little stomach ailment, only to come down with a sore throat/headachey/malaisey type of thing. Trying to rest today to see if that helps. | ||

| Running 42:29 [3]4.6 mi (9:13 / mi) | ||
| Today was one of those days that just reaffirmed for me why it is I run. It was a beautiful morning, sunshine and 30ish degrees. I ran in just a long-sleeved shirt and tights, unencumbered by all of the winter gear. I felt good from the first step, with everything just flowing right along. Every song that came on my Shuffle was great. And then the epiphany...I was cresting a hill, the sun was shining in my face and the orchestral part of my latest favorite song "Not Ready to Make Nice" started blaring in my ears, and it was just a perfectly memorable running moment. Love it! | ||

| Strength Training 50:00 [2] | ||
| I've had a touch of the stomach bug since last night, so I took it a little easy today. I'm feeling better tonight, so I'll try for a run tomorrow. | ||

| Snow Shoveling 1:00:00 [1] | ||
| I usually don't log shoveling or yard work, but today's snow was so heavy and there was so much of it (5"+), that I decided it was good strength training. Or "strenght" training, as gail would say. | ||
