The inaugural Howard Pond Biathlon. Suggested by Will and Lucia Hunt, our next-door visitors, the idea was to run around the lake and then swim across it. This was refined to include a run up Woodman's Peak along the way. Six of us participated. Three Hunts: Marta, Will, Lucia; three Nolans: Tom, Addie, Mei-An.
Will and I did the full course: around to the inlet, up the peak and down, to the end of the road and back to the ledges, then the swim across. Addie did the middle: around to the end of the road and back to the ledges (skipping the peak) and the swim across. Marta, Lucia, and Mei-An did the short: around only to the ledges, then swim across. Florence and Dave manned the canoe and kayak, ferrying goggles one way and running shoes the other, and fending off speedboats during the swim. A great time was had by all.
