Running 14:00 [3] 1.75 mi (8:00 / mi)

short run, had some pain at the end so I stopped a little bit early because I don't think a quarter mile is worth it

Catching Features 15:00 [3]

Hawse End (2 Runs)

Catching Features 30:00 [3]

after Teerivaara night being the bane of my existence I finally got it done in a good time after 8 attempts

Catching Features 54:00 [3]

might as well call it amateur hour

Catching Features 1:00:00 [3]

more mediocre catching features to avoid writing scholarship essays

Note

I think I'm going to procrastinate writing scholarship essays for a little longer by writing this note.
After playing for around 3 and a half hours of Catching features plus at least another hour of route analyses I have been driven to places that I am not proud of. I have single-mindedly focused on burying Ben Cooper's times in this game, and while my own incompetence this weekend made this task a lot harder, I must commend Benjamin Tiberius Cooper for putting down fantastic times in this game that provided a challenge to me. for a while, I've felt that I have become stagnant as a competitor, and I'm hoping that I've at least proved to myself now that I can still improve.

Event: QOC Royal Romp 2-Day Classic

Note

I planned to do the Royal Romp this weekend but a while ago I realized I my ankle would be nowhere near ready, so unfortunately I can't go.

Catching Features 55:00 [3]

fruitless endeavor to get better times on old maps almost finished a second map but then threw it at the last checkpoint. I don't know if slumps are real but lately, I've been feeling like an idiot whenever I look at a map, it's pathetic.

Running 4:00 [3] 0.5 mi (8:00 / mi)
(injured)

not a good run, shin splints are really setting in, will take it easy this weekend and do lots of massage + PT exercises. I will also be getting different shoes, my PT looked at the ones I was running in and noticed there was a lot of cushion and a 12mm drop, which can cause the lower leg to work too hard, so I will be looking for different shoes.

Running 15:33 [3] 2.1 mi (7:24 / mi)

warm up

Running 7:21 [3] 1.0 mi (7:21 / mi)

running to mileage, decided the 4 miles on Monday may have been too much, also feeling signs of shin splints

Stretching and Conditioning 40:00 [3]

did Monday/Wednesday Core and Tuesday/Thursday core while everyone else ran 200s, stretched after

Note

Talked to me PT about various things, and he thinks that with what I've been doing at PT my ankle should be good enough to start doing some speed. I also talked to him about the signs of shin splints, then he looked at my shoes and realized they had a 12mm drop on them, which is very high and causes your lower leg muscles to work harder, which can cause shin splints. will be getting different shoes this weekend

Running 5:37 [3] 0.75 mi (7:29 / mi)

warmup before strength circuit

Strength Circuit

Running 10 [3] 1.25 mi (8 / mi)

easy run after, I wanted to get around 3 miles because I feel like I might be doing too much too soon this week so I'm keeping it down.
