Saturday Jul 28 | ||
| Event: ROC - Score-O & Sprint | ||
| Orienteering race 1:15:00 [4] *** 4.2 km (17:51 / km) | |
| spiked:10/17c | ||
| COC Middle Champs at Mr. Eb's trails, northwest of Saskatoon. More to come when I have my map.
Poor effort on my part. Each time that I started to get comfortable with my navigation, I was thrown a curve that I whiffed on. The contours were too subtle for my untrained eye, so I had problems with several controls. Nate had a real rough go, but Zach flew thru his course for the win. | ||
| Orienteering warm up/down 15:00 [1] 1 km (15:00 / km) | |
| Mostly walked around some of the warm-up controls with Zach. I could tell it was going to be difficult to move thru this terrain. | ||
| Running warm up/down 15:00 [2] 1.67 mi (9:00 / mi) | |
| More warm-up than I bargained for. We were told that it was a 500m walk to the start from the porta-potties, so Zach and I left the assembly area about 15 minutes before his start. We jogged once we got to the porta-potties, but that turned out to be not quite enough. It must have been over 1200m, and Zach just missed his start. I was 3 minutes after Zach, so by the time I got him a new start time, I had missed my call-up, and they were about to move me to the maps, and I hadn't yet cleared, so it was a flurry of activity to get to the line just in time. | ||

Friday Jul 27 | ||
| Orienteering race 17:34 [5] *** 2.8 km (6:16 / km) | |
| spiked:11/16c rhr:44 slept:5.0 | ||
| COC Sprint at U of Saskatoon. Had trouble getting into the map early on, so Mike Smith made up a minute just after C3. Lost contact with him when he beat a couple of cars to a road crossing on the way to 4, and I had to wait for one of them. The heat was tough and I was a bit tired from a late night and traveling, so I didn't run particularly fast, but it was not a bad performance overall.
It actually turned out that Zach ran a faster per km time than I did. He won his age group in 11:40-ish, 2nd was over 17. Nate was 3rd - had a couple of poor route choices that put him over a minute behind Andrew, who was slightly behind the winner. They'll have their work cut out for them tomorrow. | ||
| Running warm up/down 14:00 [2] 1.6 mi (8:44 / mi) | |
| 8 minutes before the race, 6 minutes after. | ||
5 - Splits | ||
Thursday Jul 26 | ||
| Note | |
| slept:7.5 (rest day) | ||
| As usual, the last day of work before vacation was quite busy, so I had to go get fingerprinted at lunchtime, instead of getting an easy run in. | ||
| Golfing 18:00 [1] | |
| spiked:6/18c | ||
| 89, but with stretches of solid play (highlight - bird on #3). | ||
Wednesday Jul 25 | ||
| Note | |
| slept:7.75 weight:165lbs (rest day) | ||
| Off today, real easy tomorrow, and off to Saskatoon on Friday. Someone should be at the airport to pick me up at 1:42pm, so I can make it to my 4:06pm start, right Walt?
Oh - the results from the Night-O that Nate and Zach did (quite well) are here: http://www.coc2007.ca/coc2007_results.html | ||
| Golfing 18:00 [1] | |
| spiked:9/18c | ||
| Went off the first tee at 5:35, behind 4 slow women, so I was just going to play 9 holes, but they let me thru on 5, I birdied 6 to go 1-under, another group let me thru on 7 (gave the stroke back), and it was clear sailing ahead, I made par on 8, bogey on 9 for a 36, so I had to go on.
I was sure I had my first sub-80 round coming, thru 14 holes, but I had an epic choke - put up a snowman on 15 and 4-putted on 16, and wound up with an 83. Very disappointing, but my play is very promising. I only had 1 drive shorter than 245 and hit 8 of 12 fairways (missed both fairways when I used my 4-wood), only 13 putts on the front (but 20 on the back). | ||
Tuesday Jul 24 | ||

| Running 52:03 | |
| XC camp at Webster Park. Ran with the advanced girls plus Dan. We did 20 minutes, then each of the 7 led for a 3 min fartlek session, then back. | ||
Monday Jul 23 | ||
| Running 51:24 | |
| slept:6.0 | ||
| Up the river to the 2.5 mile mark (UR X-walk), turned around and at 24 minutes (a little before McLean), I started 8 x (1 minute hard/1 easy). Did this up McLean-Mt Hope-Linden-Goodman-Clinton, then easy Alexander-Monroe-around back of Strong Museum-cut thru streets to Gibbs and in.
Ran the hard stretches at 400m Rep pace or better. | ||
Sunday Jul 22 | ||
| Golfing 18:00 [1] | |
| spiked:4/18c slept:7.0 (rest day) | ||
| Birdied #4 to get back to even, but was +4 after 8, then the wheels came off. Tripled 9, 10, 11, and never regained focus - 92. | ||
