Kestrel Grey Posted January 16, 2019 Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 My goal is to race in the 2019 OCRWC in England this October, as an age-group athlete. This battle log is to keep track of my strategy and progress in getting there. Step #1: Qualify My target race is Black Ops on June 22/23. This is a 12-hour overnight obstacle course race with a 5.5K loop and some very specific rules. Strategy will feature in this, but that can be a focus after I have gained the needed fitness and technical skills. Last year I ran this and made 5 laps. This year I hope to make at least 7 laps; 7 laps in 11:08 hours would have been a qualifying time last year. 8 laps within 12 hours is my ideal result and would guarantee me a spot at world's. If anyone browsing here has thoughts or suggestions, I would love to hear them! 1 Quote Current Challenge: The Cliffs of Insanity Previous Challenges: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #11, #12, #13, #14, #15, #16, #17, #18, #19, #20, #21, #22, #23, #24, #25, #26, #27, #28, #29, #30, #31, #32, #33, #34, #35 Battle Log: Operation Fly-By-Night “Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.” ― Neil Gaiman Link to comment
Kestrel Grey Posted January 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 Black Ops - Fitness and Skills Needed 1. Speed and endurance on hills 8 laps would be 44km on dirt trails, not counting penalty loops. The terrain is not technical but has some muddy sections and many steep sections. About 1/3 is flat, 1/3 is rolling hills, and 1/3 is steep (45% grade). This means fitness but also proper nutrition/hydration/pacing strategies. 2. Grip and upper body strength Last year had 15 obstacles per loop. Three were rigs, and several of the non-rigs needed grip strength (peg board traverse, climbing on the underneath of cargo nets, jumping to catch the rope before climbing it, etc). 3. Technical obstacle proficiency The penalty loops are there to hurt more than the obstacle would have, so completing obstacles is important in having the time and energy for all the laps. This means research, guidance, and lots of practice. 4. Stubbornness and courage Stubbornness is not a problem for me. Courage can be - I couldn't make myself jump on the Dragon's Back last year. Heights are still a problem for me. I also got really, really sulky and snarly at points in the middle of the night so I'll work out some strategies to keep my head in a good place. 1 Quote Current Challenge: The Cliffs of Insanity Previous Challenges: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #11, #12, #13, #14, #15, #16, #17, #18, #19, #20, #21, #22, #23, #24, #25, #26, #27, #28, #29, #30, #31, #32, #33, #34, #35 Battle Log: Operation Fly-By-Night “Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.” ― Neil Gaiman Link to comment
Kestrel Grey Posted January 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2019 Training Principles 1. Don't get injured. Listen to my physiotherapist. Listen to my body. Don't increase volume and intensity on the same week. Do all my preventative maintenance. Eat and sleep well. Take rest days when needed. 2. Ask for help. Happily stalk other Ranger's threads and training and pester them for advice. Actually follow said advice. Go out trail running with experienced runners. Go to classes at the OCR gym. Post on the FB page for local OCR runners and ask for help with crewing at the race. 3. Be consistent. Only miss training days for needed rest, not for laziness. Build fitness slowly and steadily. Train at least 5 days a week, mostly 6 with a few doubles. 4. Have fun. It is still a long 6 months to my qualifying race, and even longer until the OCRWC. In order to last through my training (without killing anyone) I need to remember to enjoy myself. Take my training seriously, but don't take myself too seriously. Smile when I run and race. 2 Quote Current Challenge: The Cliffs of Insanity Previous Challenges: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #11, #12, #13, #14, #15, #16, #17, #18, #19, #20, #21, #22, #23, #24, #25, #26, #27, #28, #29, #30, #31, #32, #33, #34, #35 Battle Log: Operation Fly-By-Night “Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.” ― Neil Gaiman Link to comment
Kestrel Grey Posted January 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 Phase I - Base Jan, Feb 2019 (approx 6 remaining weeks) Running Plan The goal for this phase is to build my weekly running time and start working on a long run. Right now I am running 3 times a week for 40 minutes at a "comfortable" pace. One run will be lengthened to 45 minutes this week, 50 next, and 60 the week after. At that point I can add in a 4th weekly run for 30 minutes. By the end of the phase I should be at 4 runs per week (40, 40, 30, 90 mins). My physiotherapist does not want me to start increasing intensity of my runs until this point. Injury-Proof Plan Twice weekly strength training - currently this is a short, full-body progressive lifting routine. ( I don't have any ideas on how to best program this for the June OCR.) Daily calf strengthening exercise, at least 5/7 per week Twice weekly extended physio exercises including balance work. Lose weight, about 5 lbs by the end of this phase through quality meals and less snacking. Grip and Obstacles Plan Biweekly bouldering GtG deadhangs, pinch grips and farmer carries. I will track this so each week has slightly more than the previous. Visit an OCR gym to see where I am at with obstacles. 2 Quote Current Challenge: The Cliffs of Insanity Previous Challenges: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #11, #12, #13, #14, #15, #16, #17, #18, #19, #20, #21, #22, #23, #24, #25, #26, #27, #28, #29, #30, #31, #32, #33, #34, #35 Battle Log: Operation Fly-By-Night “Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.” ― Neil Gaiman Link to comment

Stígandr Posted January 20, 2019 Report Share Posted January 20, 2019 I'm not really into doing OCRs. Personally I'm going for road races at the moment. But of course OCRs are quite spectacular and requires more rounded abilities, which is attractive. I'll follow your training to see what it takes. Also I hope that it can give me ideas I can steal. 1 Quote Most illuminated Mage of the Unbroken Circle Link to comment
Kestrel Grey Posted January 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Update - Phase I (Base) Weeks remaining: 4/6 Running Plan Currently at 45/45/50 minutes a week, with one set of strides. I have tried pushing this a little in different ways (running on hills or trying to sneak in speed work) but each time my knee let me know I need to stick with the plan. My physiotherapist knows what she is doing. Injury-Proof Plan I am only running at about 50% on these. When I am busy I tend to let my strength training slip before my running. This is okay for straight-up heavy lifting but it is not okay for my physio exercises. They need to be prioritized over running if I want to stay healthy through the long months ahead. Sugar is on the chopping block as I transition back into weight-loss eating. Grip and Obstacle Plan Bouldering was sidelined last week due to illness. I will see if I can make up the session somewhere in February. GtG pinch grips and farmer's carry are going well but I would like to focus a little more on pull-ups for the remaining weeks. Miscellaneous Our vacation requests for the coming year have been approved, or dis-approved as the case may be. My request for time off for Black Ops, my qualifying event, was approved. My time off for OCRWC was not. This is slightly troubling. I do have an amazing bunch of coworkers though, and if they know this is important to me I am 90% sure we can find a way to trade shifts around so I can still go. In the mean time I am determined to forget about the possibility of not going and train like it's a sure thing. 1 Quote Current Challenge: The Cliffs of Insanity Previous Challenges: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #11, #12, #13, #14, #15, #16, #17, #18, #19, #20, #21, #22, #23, #24, #25, #26, #27, #28, #29, #30, #31, #32, #33, #34, #35 Battle Log: Operation Fly-By-Night “Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.” ― Neil Gaiman Link to comment
Kestrel Grey Posted February 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 February's Training Plan Running Strength Physio Monday 45 min E + strides Grip/abs circuit Calf raise SL squat Tuesday (Opt hike) Push day Calf raise Glute bridge Wednesday 45 min E Grip/abs circuit Band work Thursday Pull day Calf raise Glute bridge Friday 30 min E + strides Beginner bootcamp Saturday Long run (Opt bouldering) SL squat Sunday rest rest rest New for February, I get to add in a fourth day of running! This is an ideal weekly plan only. It's too early in the season to let myself get stressed out over training. The key runs and the grip training need to happen, and there is no excuse for skipping physio, but otherwise I won't sweat it if something comes up and I miss a session. Or if I decide to go play in the mountains for the day instead. I will be travelling the last week of the month, which will be my rest week before moving into Phase II of my training.

Kestrel Grey Posted February 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 Obstacle Proficiency - Baseline Test Feb 1, 2019 I visited the OCR gym to try out their obstacles and get a feel for where I stand. While I was disappointed in how few obstacles I can currently complete, it is encouraging to realise how little I need to conquer the rest. (Note: none of the pictures are of me, spoilered for photo size.) 1. L-Wall Traverse Spoiler This was a no, but I think that was due to poor shoe choice. They were wider at the bottom of the sole so I couldn't get my weight on the blocks very well, and didn't manage to shift feet. 2. Angled wall rope climb Spoiler No problem here. 3. Angled 8' wall Spoiler I had difficulty holding on to the wooden slats and kept falling off. So no. 4. Cargo net A-frame Spoiler No problem, but I am slow transitioning over the top. I wasn't brave enough to try the rolling technique. 5. Fat-grip monkey bars Spoiler My grip failed me here. I can't swing by one hand with a thumbless grip and so can't get to the next bar. 6. Rings Spoiler Surprisingly these felt easier than the monkey bars. I could hang from one hand because I could use my thumbs, and the rings were smaller than the bars were. I didn't cross them but practiced my swing while holding onto two of them. 7. Underside of cargo net and rope traverse Spoiler Between my lack of faith in my grip, and my fear of falling on my head, I didn't attempt these. 9. Rope climb Spoiler I can still do these! No problem, but my fear of heights stopped me about 2/3 of the way up. I use the J-hook and feel secure. If I can get my core stronger I can move my feet higher each time and get up faster; toes-to-bar may be in my future. 10. 4' 6' and 8' walls Spoiler I couldn't do them! This is frustrating because I could get the 6' wall last year. I know I am not weaker now so it must be a technique thing. My hips/hamstrings are also really tight so lack of flexibility may be an issue. The 4' wall is the only one I did today. 11. vertical pole thingies Spoiler I managed to get to the third pole before we moved on. This is something I feel confident I can get with just a little more practice. 12. Rigs Spoiler No pictures, but no need. There was no way this was going to happen so I didn't even try. It was random hanging objects and swinging hang boards. Maybe after I can at least get the regular monkey bars I'll give this a shot. 13. Wall traverse with chains and ropes Spoiler By this point my grip was shot and I didn't even try. 14. Mini-dragon's back Spoiler This was disappointing because it didn't represent any of the challenge of the real thing. It was not off the ground so I didn't have to deal with heights and the leap was so small I could step across. 15. Peg board Spoiler This is set up so you can either move across it or up it. I just held myself up with my arms at 90 and practiced shifting my weight side to side. My pull-up work is starting to pay off here. 16. Weaver Spoiler I need more core strength for this. I could get my foot on the next board but couldn't raise myself up high enough to hook it completely. Overall impression: I desperately need more grip strength. With simply the ability to hang by one hand in the thumbless grip I could probably learn to overcome all the obstacles. Next, having more core strength, flexibility, and vertical jump. My next check will be in Phase II. 1 Quote Current Challenge: The Cliffs of Insanity Previous Challenges: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #11, #12, #13, #14, #15, #16, #17, #18, #19, #20, #21, #22, #23, #24, #25, #26, #27, #28, #29, #30, #31, #32, #33, #34, #35 Battle Log: Operation Fly-By-Night “Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.” ― Neil Gaiman Link to comment

By great fun I mean I cried and threw up and fell down a lot*, and couldn't walk for a week afterwards, but found out I can push through all that and earned my 5-lap badge. I've never been more proud of myself. The whole place has a festival-air, and the camp is full of music and people there to support their runners, and they serve pancakes afterwards. This year I want to do even better and really rock the whole experience. *To be fair it would have been more enjoyable if I wasn't already sleep-deprived because I had to get up early to drive the 11 hours there. 1 Quote Current Challenge: The Cliffs of Insanity Previous Challenges: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #11, #12, #13, #14, #15, #16, #17, #18, #19, #20, #21, #22, #23, #24, #25, #26, #27, #28, #29, #30, #31, #32, #33, #34, #35 Battle Log: Operation Fly-By-Night “Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.” ― Neil Gaiman Link to comment

Kestrel Grey Posted February 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 Week T-19 Battle Report Monday - Ran 45 minutes easy + 5 strides. Did random deadhangs and negative pull-ups for a bit. Physio was calf raises and one set of 1/4 squats. Tuesday - Push day Spoiler Squat (75lb) 3x10 incline press (30lb) 10/10/9 3 x circuit of: 5 push-up neg, 8 calf raise with 20lb, 20 sec sl glute bridge Wednesday - Ran 45 minutes easy. Thursday - IMS needling in legs and foot, no exercising today. Friday - Ran 30 minutes "fun hard". Saturday - Ran 60 minutes easy. Physio was banded clamshells. Went bouldering (VB, V0, V1). Sunday - Today I am planning 15 minutes of yoga, and a very short walk in the -38 weather. This week felt very draining until after Thursday's extra rest day. Maybe because I had several early morning shifts this week, but maybe because I am not used to double workout days just yet. All the planned runs happened and two grip-related sessions (yay!) but only 1/3 strength sessions and 2/5 physio. My physiotherapist laughed when I mentioned how tired I was; she refers to it as "paying my dues" to get back into regular training. Bouldering was fun. It was my first of the year and we managed a couple routes I didn't last time. I am still afraid of heights so it prevents me from taking risks and I can never seem to figure out where to put my feet. Weight hasn't been budging so I am resorting to calorie tracking. 2 Quote Current Challenge: The Cliffs of Insanity Previous Challenges: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #11, #12, #13, #14, #15, #16, #17, #18, #19, #20, #21, #22, #23, #24, #25, #26, #27, #28, #29, #30, #31, #32, #33, #34, #35 Battle Log: Operation Fly-By-Night “Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.” ― Neil Gaiman Link to comment

Kestrel Grey Posted February 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 I may have to cut back on my training schedule. On any day I am working, the second workout is consistently not happening. I'm not 100% sure if it is because of energy or time constraints; my work goes until 11:30 pm most days so everything (exercise, chores, fun) has to happen in the morning and one of the workouts ends up getting dropped. This may be reality, but I am not okay with it. What can I leave out? Everything seems essential right now!
