| Rode to work this morning. Most was at level 3, but some sections I picked it up to a 4, others were at a 2. Took a bit longer then expected when I discovered the trail I normally take was closed and I had to find a new way north from the lake to work. |

| Got up today and rode with the DVD Bent lent me one more time before I give it back. Was worried at about 25 minutes that I wouldn't be able to finish because I'd gone out too hard, but I was able to hold on. Quite a good workout this is, but with the season changing it's time to get outside... :)
Bent, to prove you've read this do you want to wait until I see you next, or do you want me to mail it back to you? :) |

| I was all ready to go out for a nice ride this morning, wanting to be out for at least 3 hours. I had the bike all ready and turned on the tv to see what the temperature was. I was a bit shocked to find out that with a wind chill it was -11. I can't ride for that long with my current gear at that temperature without worrying about froozen toes, so I setup the trainer again and rode inside. |

| |
| Warm up and down during my morning workout. |
| Running intervals 47:00 [5] | |
| |
| 5 intervals, 7 minutes on and 2 minutes off. This really hurt so I took a 3 minute break after 3 and 4 instead of reducing the time in each interval. |
| Other 1:00:00 [1] | |
| |
| I don't normally like to count none training activity in my attack point log, but I ended up playing 3 hours of pretty competitive beach volleyball tonight. So we'll count this as 1 hour. |

| Today I did the crit race with Robbie Ventura that Bent lent me. Definitely a good workout, thanks Bent. I know you were looking for a review of this DVD, but I'm not sure what to write. Definitely tougher then anything I done myself on the bike. I don't know if I could do it every week (boredom factor), but I may try come next year. |

| Orienteering race 1:53:00 [4] | |

Saturday Apr 1 |
| Running warm up/down 30:00 [1] | |
| |
| Warm up before sprint and relay. |
| Orienteering race 26:00 [5] | |
| |
| Just an aweful race. I ran by 1 and had problems with 2 that cost me probably 4/5 minutes. I got caught following Jon Torrance as he ran past #11. I punched it, but assumed he was going on to 12, which he wasn't. |
| Orienteering 1:16:00 [4] | |
| |
| Terrible relay run. I was doing well until I couldn't find #4. Turns out I still needed to go one more hill until I was there. The frustration caused me to also really not pay attention to 5. From 7 I went 180 degrees in the wrong direction. Oh well..... |
