orienteer race 1:09:05 [4] *** 5.6 km (12:20 / km)
ahr:158
Day one at Tucson, my first foray into the scary world of F45. There were 7 women in the class, which is great competition.
My number one goal today was not to have a "bad" day. I have quite a streak of "bad day one, better day two" at A meets. I was determined to break that streak.
And I did. Sure, I was slow (walked up hills, jogged flats and down). Sure, I made mistakes. But the mistakes were on the order of one to two minutes. And I never wandered around aimlessly. Yeah ! Finished last in the class, but only minutes behind second through sixth. And I was in the middle of the pack of green course times. Last year, I would have been in the bottom third, and 20+ minutes behind the other F45s.
Consistency:11.1
Time lost: 4.0%
I'm pleased with my progress.
Followed by a fine dinner with Mook, Mike, Mikell and Kris. Only low point to the day was that Mike's cold was worse :(
walk 45:00 [1]
Back to contol 9, in a futile attempt to find my lost magnifier. Slow walk, but I was tired from my course, and it was draining to be out in the sun the whole time, so I'm counting it towards my training.
