Event: Dirty Bird 15K Trail Run

Running race 1:08:53 [4] 14.99 km (4:36 / km) +379m 4:05 / km
ahr:167 max:172 shoes: O-VJ-Grey-Spikes

8th of 344 http://www.pretzelcitysports.com/08%20dirty%20bird...
20 seconds from a top 2% finish. Pretty happy with that result, and was happy I could fight hard the whole way - didn't fade like many others (I was ~25th at 0.3 miles (all paved), 15th at 1/3 point, and 12th a 1/2 point.) Many place changes, where I'd pass, and/or be passed by the same person more than once

Pretty cold (30-something & drizzling), but was comfy in tights & long sleeve top, with ear band coming off early, and gloves going on and off a few times.

Running warm up/down 6:21 [2] 0.9 km (7:03 / km) +10m 6:41 / km
ahr:140 shoes: O-VJ-Grey-Spikes

Too late for a proper warmup, and didn't cool down at all as I was freezing cold. But about halfway home, my legs/knees were feeling crappy, so I stopped for a 3 minute cooldown loop - still freezing, but the legs felt a lot better.

Event: HVO Dual Meet with DVOA at Eagle Rock

Event: HVO Night Sprint-O at Eagle Rock

Running warm up/down 9:02 [2] 1.32 km (6:51 / km) +33m 6:05 / km
shoes: O-VJ Integrator Spikes

Before the HVO/DVOA dual event. 35 or so, but dry at least.

Orienteering race 40:37 [4] 6.9 km (5:53 / km) +75m 5:35 / km
ahr:164 max:175 shoes: O-VJ Integrator Spikes

Outclassed again - about 2-2.5 minutes of mistake on a 20-something control course seemed okay, but then Zhyk, Balter & Sergei G. were cleaner, and faster! I beat Clem, which is always good, but it wasn't that long ago when Clem & I were fighting for 1st, not 4th... :(

Running 23:36 [2] 4.1 km (5:45 / km) +48m 5:26 / km
shoes: R-NB 891's

In the dark after a family outing that took the whole day. Went with my grandfather, aunt, uncle & mom on a walking tour of some downtown Philly sites, incl. a big model train setup at some famous terminal marketplace (which was one of the most crowded places I've ever been on this holiday Friday), then to Macy's Christmas show, then to the liberty bell and independence hall (we'd seen National Treasure on DVD about a week before..)

Running race 18:55 [4] 5.0 km (3:47 / km) +20m 3:43 / km
shoes: R-NB 891's

5k race in NE Devon (2 miles from home) w/about 150 people. I was 3rd. Angelica was 2nd woman. I'm happy with the time, as climb-adjusted it's very close to my fastest ever, and I think it's my 2nd fastest.

My R knee got sore over the next two days, which may be related to road racing (it's happened before.) Not so happy with that. Hope that recovers soon.

Running warm up/down 25:45 [2] 3.51 km (7:20 / km) +20m 7:08 / km
ahr:120 shoes: R-NB 891's

better cooldown than warmup...

Running 2:07:45 [2] 21.08 km (6:04 / km) +285m 5:41 / km
ahr:134 shoes: R-NB 891's

Loop to King of Prussia and back.

Work continues to get more hectic, with my first ever scheduled meeting on a weekend (last Saturday at 5-6pm)... I even checked (work) email tonight for an hour to help out the people who've been working weekends and late nights. My attackpoint and personal email are lagging severely. I've yet to miss a run since Sept. 1 though. Family's not to happy with the work situation though. No meetings have been scheduled for the Thanksgiving break (yet.)

Running intervals 52:32 9.79 km (5:22 / km) +90m 5:08 / km
max:173 shoes: R-NB 891's

With Angelica, during the day, ran 1x-mile then 2x 1/2 mile - in the mulch & bushes (20%) and mowed grass (80%) next to the trail, where Angelica was running on pavement. It was reasonably balanced with me a bit ahead. Next we may try Angelica on mowed grass/dirt trail, and me in the deep grass, in VF park..
