    • Mountains, sea, woods. I truly enjoy my time outside. The year is going great with rock climbing trips, orienteering, yoga, with some biking and mountaineering this summer.

      • Just wanted to tell you that In April and May 2013 Greg Maud and Jukka Viljanen will be attempting to run across the Greenland icecap. This will be the first time that anyone has attempted to run across Greenland. Their route will take them from the Isortoq on the east coast to Kangerlussuaq in the west and cover a distance of around 620km. http://www.greenlandrun.com/

      • Hey MtnLivin! We've got a Bikram Yoga studio in town now and today I tried it out. Now I know, why you like it so much - it's awesome! :-))

      • I'm so glad you are enjoyed it, Elina! Keep it up. I like it for recovery form minor injuries, but also just to get back into the balance/breath/pull/stretch routine. Feels good to push the limits, once you get past the heat!

      • I've been there three times now and I think I'm addicted. :-) I'll definitly try to do it once a week on a regular basis. How often do you practise?

      • MtnLivin

        19.2.2013
      • Good to hear! Sometimes 2-3 per week, sometimes once, and some weeks with none. Depends on what's going on at work and home, but 2x per week would be ideal for me, as recovery after weekend events, and mid to late-week to stretch out between other work outs. Good luck in developing your practice!

      • DJ, yes sir, always a blast, and in keeping with what Mom used to tell me, "Go outside and play!" Combine problem solving of navigating from map to woods, and trying to keep the pace up adds up to a nice challenge. Couple of mistakes, but nice trip through some thick woods yesterday!

      Bikram. Nice finish to 2011! Best stretch I've had in quite a while - felt pretty good throughout, but highlights were camel (min 76) and all compression moves. Actually had some minor cramps in feet and stomach muscles--must not have hydrated enough today! Relatively cool and humid, Tmax 40º C.

    • Crosscountry skiing 2:49'09 Average heart rate 133 bpm, 15.80 km.
      XC ski touring at Wolf Creek ski area, Colorado, by Alberta Park Reservoir, rolling terrain in and out of woods. Wonderful to get out on some really nice snow, at a beautiful location on the Continental Divide, 3,200 m elevation. Definitely felt the altitude on the long uphills. Very quiet, with only one other XC skier out on the trails I was skiing. Uploaded MemBelt, since T6 doesn't want to reload event, including laps and elevation, after accidental delete. D'oh!

      Urban orienteering, Score-O, at University of MD, my first! One hour limit, made 20 of 30 available controls. Sunny and warm, before afternoon showers. Lots of fun, and nice to be able to maintain relatively steady pace between controls.

      Susquehanna Stumble XIV, Short course, with SVO. Absolutely gorgeous day at Pine Grove Furnace State Park, with a great group of folks. Good pace for me (10.4 min/km), with mass start and following allowed. Course Pack broke up before second control window. One parallel error on way up from E-F, looks like drifted left on way up the hill from trail--cost me ~5 mins, due to relocate and climb again. Slowed down a bit after that, too. Lots of fun, and next year I'll run Long course!

      Bushwacker 2012. Fun day in the woods! Ran 2nd leg of relay, with option of sticking to marked trail (nah) or bushwacking to shave some distance off the ~10 km course (yep!). Team mate, Alex, got us a great start & we placed 2nd in class/6th for all relay teams. Very enjoyable run! Hot, so shady forest was nice. Pretty good contact with map; minor nav probs/focus drift added up to ~5 mins. Route on map here is freehand--no GPS allowed. Distance ~7.5 km, for ~6.8 km/h moving avg.

    • Crosscountry skiing 2:00'34.7, 8.51 km.
      XC skiing at White Grass, with fantastic conditions, right around freezing and sunshine until dusk. Sied down to Gandalf's then up Springer Orchard for a few runs in powder (SW edge of track), then back to center and a lap around the snowfarm. Will upload Memory Belt data separately -- for some reason Ambit dropped my custom xc ski exercise option after last firmware update. Would love to get back out here a few more times this winter!

    • Karvonen Training...

      1.12.2012, Bucheror
      Training
    • ------------------------ The Karvonen formula is the gold standard for training zones. It is based on your Reserve Heart Rate, the difference between your maximum HR and your Rest HR, rather than only the max heart rate. 50% to 60%: Recovery and weight loss zone. 60% to 70%: The heart starts to benefit from the exercise. Slow and long distance exercise. Fat is the primary fuel and therefore good zone for weight loss. 70% to 80%: Aerobic zone - This is the optimal zone to workout in to increase your cardio-respitory capacity or the bodies ability to transport oxygenated blood to the muscle cells and carbon dioxide away from the cells. 80% to 90%: Cross over from aerobic training to anaerobic. Training in this zone will improve performance and dealing with Lactic acid. Training in this zone is felt as hard. 90% to 100%: Red Line Zone - You will only be able to train in this zone for short periods of time. You should not train at this level unless you are very fit. In this zone lactic ...
