| Extra-Long Red course at East Fork State Park:
Solid effort but quite tired towards the end. Navigation was suprisingly good, no major mistakes, just a couple execution errors. Twisted my ankle going from 4 b/c I glanced at some random guy just stading there in the middle of the woods. wtf?! I'm proud of myself this weekend b/c I was much more confident in my orienteering; I def. see progress. | ||

| Miami Univ. sprint:
fun race around campus (haven't done one of these before) but mostly on pavement so speed was def a factor. I was not jumping over those chain fences but going underneath so that prob slowed me down even more. Minor hesitation on 8 but thats about it. | ||

| Sprint 2:
Kicked it up a notch for this forest-type sprint; there were still a lot of trail running but I gave it my honest effort, no mistakes. I liked these two diff. sprints, they're a great training for me. | ||

| shoes: Nike | ||
| very nice run to/at caldwell park in warm 60 degree weather and light drizzle.
by practicing yoga i learned how important it is to keep your back straight during most poses, so today I tried lengthening my back during my run. the reaction was immidiate, I was actually suprised how different my body felt when controlling my back. I wasn't keeping it rigid but def. employing my abdominal and back muscles and that made my body mov't more natural, unrestrained. (also my hips stopped hurting and energy was better :) | ||
| Plyometrics 5:00 [4] | ||
| strides and jumps in the middle of my run on baseball field, damn these are hard.. | ||
