Hiking 2:30:00 [1] 6.25 mi (24:00 / mi)
Hiking at Silver Falls State Park with Tom and Sylvia. Sylvia was in the framed hiking pack and seemed a happy camper until near the end. At which point, I gave her the map, which she proceeded to eat. And then a few hours later, throw up over everything. Parenting whoops.
Lots of waterfalls, and also lots of people! Especially at the beginning. Including lots of babies. Lots of baby-carrying devices, including not rugged strollers on the trails.
Good hike for before 2nd edition of camping with baby, which went better. She didn't initially want to sleep (so was up until 10pm!), but then woke up once in the middle of the night and once at 5am, which was way better than last time. She mostly stayed in her mini-tent within our tent, but we bought an extra sleeping pad and that totally helped. Then I could roll over to her without getting cold + uncomfy. And she'll use it sometime down the road anyways...
Think the mini-tent is our sleeping plan for her both at NAOCs and up at the cottage with my family, so hoping to get her accustomed to it.

Cycling 1:00:00 [1] 12.6 mi (4:46 / mi)
Running warm up/down 25:00 [1] 2.5 mi (10:00 / mi)
Running race 5:22 [4] 1.0 mi (5:22 / mi)
A track mile! Signed up last minute on Thurs for the inaugural Rose City Mile. One of the last mile races I've done was in front of the late Sir Roger Bannister (track @ Oxford was dedicated to him while I was there). This one had Alan Webb, American national record holder in the mile (3:46.91).
I was in the 2nd women's heat, having put down an expected time of 5:40. I quickly settled into 3rd off the start and stayed there for the first two laps. Then I passed on the curve the 2nd woman and on the back stretch the one who had been leading. I led the rest of the way, I think speeding up a tidge.
When I finished, turns out the woman in 2nd was only 4 months after giving birth! Super impressed with her. And Alan Webb's wife, Julia raced in the elite heat at 12 weeks pregnant finishing in 5:19. (Guess she made the Olympic trials but now won't go due to the pregnancy.)
Anyways, fun to do, think I had more speed in me, but hard to pace the first short effort I've done in awhile!!
