Day 19 – Last day!
Saturday, June 21, 2003
Training location:
Home, upstairs.
Training conditions:
Mid-afternoon. Caffeine in the morning. Woke up at 5am. Dragging this morning. Took a nap at 1pm. Feeling in an OK mood. Alone in the house.
Starting on n=4. One miss, up to n=5. For perhaps the first time, feeling very much on top of n=4. Felt good on n=5, but must have been confused! 8 misses. Two misses on n=4, back up to n=5. (6 hits, 7 misses: again feeling I was doing better than this.) Next n=4, 3 misses. Then 1 miss. Up to n=5. (7 hits, 7 misses: again the feeling that I was tracking this better) Getting a little distracted / unfocused on block 8. Two false starts. Took a break, came back with two misses, up to n=5 again. No misses!!! Up to n=6 for the first time. 6 hits, 9 misses… not too bad. 8 hits 8 misses on n=5, down to n=4. 4 misses, staying on n=4. 3 misses. 3 misses. Right on the brink. Took a break. Came back with 1 miss, up to n=5. Three misses, staying on n=5. (9 hits, 6 misses.) No misses on block 18, back up to n=5. 11 hits, 4 misses. Staying on n=5 for the last block of the last session of 19. Mean n of 4.55, by far the best ever, and the biggest inter-session jump (0.35) not counting the big jump after a sharp drop.
