Road Running warm up/down 25:00 [1] 2.2 mi (11:22 / mi)

O - competition race 1:06:00 intensity: (16:00 @3) + (30:00 @4) + (20:00 @5) 4.0 mi (16:30 / mi)

Lower section of Mt Tom around Lake Bray. Lots of climb for the first five controls and then a long traverse. Lost track of position and went into the relocation mode, costing 5 min. Then down and across the brook, missing a reentrant on the hill by I-91 for another 5 min.

Not a satisfactory run, pretty sloppy on a number of points. Could have been because I was running faster. Mistakes were quite expensive.

Legs okay, but not as good as yesterday.

Road Running (Warmup) 14:00 [1] 1.3 mi (10:46 / mi)

O - competition race (Troll A-meet) 1:05:58 [4] 3.6 mi (18:19 / mi)

Course length 4.9 km. Top of Mt Tom Reservation. Love this terrain; good courses by Phil.

Drifted L on #3, ended up at pond, wondered why it wasn't on the map by the control. Finally convinced myself the map was (gads!) correct and I was 50 m to the left. Quick adjustment and lost only a minute.

Felt strong on the climbs. Really enjoyed the outing.

Road Running (Cool down) 22:00 [1] 2.1 mi (10:29 / mi)

Cross Training 45:00 [1]

Nice part about a meet close by is you can commute and get things done at home. Cut down a half dozen saplings on one of the new ski trails and cleared some stumps. Limited myself to one tank of gas, so I wouldn't overdo it. Need to be recovering for tomorrow.

Note

No training, resting for meet tomorrow. In Manchester cleaning. Did first cut at the junk stuffed under the basement stairs -- this was the junk area when I lived there 40 years ago! Old salvaged items such at the kitchen overhead light removed during remodeling (in 1955).

Roller skiing (Rte 11 hills) 1:12:00 [3] 10.9 mi (6:36 / mi)

Easy warm up, then three 4 min intervals during workout. First two were on uphill sections, last was on slight downgrade. Find it hard to keep balance skating fast downhill, but this time seemed to be ok. Slowed my cadence, but kept thrusting hard and picked up desired speed.

Road Running (Chester via PO) 53:00 [2] 6.0 mi (8:50 / mi)

Too late for skiing, so did the town loop, mostly in the dark.

Tuesday Oct 21, 2008 #

Road Running warm up/down (Cummings Rd) 22:00 [1] 2.2 mi (10:00 / mi)

Weight Training (General strength) 45:00 [3]

Free wgts - squats, bench press, curls; wall wgts; body exercises - pull ups 10/10, pushups, planks, dips.

R shoulder starting to bother me. Maybe too many exercises on arms (7 different exercises x 2 sets); will try alternating some of them between workouts.
