Run down to UBCO to meet up with Rachel and Alexander.

Warm up running along mission creek greenway.

O-Tervals in mission creek park with Rachel and Alexander. SO MUCH FUN!!!!! Getting out on a map was awesome, even better cause I didn't make it, and I have never used it!

Really nice terrain, park is just a little bit too small.

Made a fair number of mistakes, espescially when I started string together a couple good controls, I would let myself relax too much and stop focusing. Need to always be 100% present mentally, not get distracted by other people.

We alternated between doing interval starts of around 30sec, and mass starts.

Cool down.

Out with the tablet mapping the chunk of Academy Hill right below my apartment. Ended up just doing trails and fences today, will go back later for vegetation (should be pretty quick). It was hard in places deciding between symbols for major, distinct, indistinct, and not mapped.

Rolling out my back while watching Stranger Things Season 2.

Hey! You hear about that new 3rd sprint thing happening for WOC? Well guess what's happening in Kelowna next spring. Meeting happened earlier this evening with positive results. Stay tuned...

Easy run around with Rachel, other David (I'm not referring to myself in 3rd person don't worry), and Alexander showing them some of the trails they haven't been on around Academy Hill.

Feeling better today, I caught up on sleep with 11 hours last night.

Just kept progressively feeling worse throughout the school day, so naturally finished off my day with a lab exam in microbio. Don't think I did all that well....

Home for lots of rest, sleep and tea.

RIP training plan for this week.

I should have know that I wouldn't get out today. Turns out AGM's are fairly long, and so are lab write-ups and studying for lab exams.

A few key things that I am happy about from the AGM:
- We are changing the fee structure! Simplifying things, still have to hammer out some details.
- We have a spring schedule of Sunday events already!
- Assuming Rachel and Alexander are still on board OART is a go for the end of April.
- I more or less have a job for next spring
- I am now on the board of directors
- We are mapping more in Revelstoke next year, and now have representation from Revelstoke on the board!
- We are investigating a bulk order of compass that will be available for purchase at events.

Back and neck are really tightening up again. Must be studying too much. Might have to find a physio in Kelowna.

Easy run on academy hill. Weekly training plan 1/1 so far. Now just gotta keep it going, while dealing with a lab exam, a big lab write-up, and a midterm over the next couple of days.
