Shoreline Shuffle 5K on trails. Nice run today. Only stubbed my toe twice but did not fall. Kept pace slightly below my "normal" race effort. A few people passed me, then other guy caught me about half way and stayed behind me. I wondered if he would pass me. Picked up the pace the last half mile and finished ahead of him. Social distancing, 1 min. start gaps with masks on at start. Bottled water and bagged chips at end. Small event (20 starters) but good to see friends and chat with new people. Talked to a couple who was at the Overlook Park O'. Another guy moved back to Kansas from Santa Cruz (CA); we talked about Big Basin Redwood Park and Forest of Nisene Marks, where I orienteered many years ago.
10 AM
orienteering warm up/down (walking/running) 23:00 [1] 1.6 mi (14:22 / mi)
shoes: Salomon XT Wings 3
I was at Clinton SP and felt energetic enough so decided after 2 weeks to remove the streamers from the Overlook Park O'. Easy stroll/jog.

biking 1:45:00 [1] 7.6 mi (4.3 mph)
ahr:92 max:175 shoes: Serfas tires
Stop n Go on 12K and 8K courses to place mile markers for 8K (Oct 4) and adjusting proper mile markers for 12 in November. Had to carry stakes and plastic-sealed signs in a backpack meant for school. Had to use old bike toe straps to hold stakes to the backpack. Tools: hammer to nail down mile marker stakes (4" common nails and 10" nails for the start and turnaround on the 12K), steel tape for marker adjustments, spray paint for temporary marks when riding back to double check markers.
Afterwards put away the Jones counter after having certified 3 courses this summer.
Still avg cadence of 74 rpm

slept:7.0 shoes: Serfas tires
course measurement for Levee 12K - calibration course 2X, and
2x 12K on levee. First time, a lot of stops to measure mile marks from an identifiable landmark - hard to do with so few along the levee.
Had lunch (food from Mama's Tamales) at 1 pm before doing final bike calibration. I was feeling dizzy and light headed earlier and fortunately I had a granola bar along to help.
Always a few minor hitches in measuring, but dealt with them better today.
But, I'll wait til tomorrow to do the final adjustments. A 3rd ride on the course would have been too much today.
Total time mentioned with all the breaks on the first measurement.

Rode from home to the east end of the levee, stopping to remark the 8K mile marker points and set out a pole marker for the turnaround and prepped for calibrating the 12K course on Wed. Nice easy ride with 30 minutes of stops. Saw John Huchingson running 5 miles on the levee, scoping out the course.
