hashing 35:00 [3] 3.5 mi (10:00 / mi)
Dayton Hash. Quarter Barrell hared. Moderate rain started as soon as we did, and trail marks were quickly obliterated. After losing trail and running aimlessly (while getting completely drenched), most of us eventually returned to the cars. A few with the aid of cell phones and inside knowledge did manage to complete the trail.

Event: OCIN / FAST-O Armco Park
orienteering race 22:20 [4] *** 3.4 km (6:34 / km)
16c shoes: Sala Runner 3
"Short", the longest of the 3 sprints at Armco Park. Wrong shoes for the course and I took a spectacular fall going downhill on wet grass, but fortunately a very soft landing. That cost a few seconds, as did looking for a non-existant trail, and I lost 3 or 5 more seconds setting up a "runner's crossing road" sign that had fallen over.
orienteering race 17:28 [4] *** 2.7 mi (6:28 / mi)
14c shoes: Jalas hi-top 2010
"Shorter"
orienteering race 14:38 [4] *** 2.0 km (7:19 / km)
13c shoes: Jalas hi-top 2010
finished up with the "beginner" course.

trail running 32:52 [2] 3.08 mi (10:40 / mi)
weight:162lbs
trail run with Jeremy at MSRA. A slow, easy pace. Did the first 1.25 mile trail at a little below a 10 min / mile pace, but then the donut-fed trooper had to walk a bit, so I ended up doing a few short backtracks to stick with him. Going back on the service road, about half of it had not been mowed and we were running through knee high grass with a smattering of low poison ivy tossed in. To top it off, Jeremy found a tick crawling on him when we finished.
Afterward, we adjourned to Jeremy's new house where wife Stephanie prepared a delicious dinner of chicken, pasta, brussel sprouts, with fresh strawberries and kiwi. Yum.
While we waited for dinner, we chalked up our pool cues. We both could do better at billiards. I beat him 2 out of 3, but only won one fair and square as we each lost one by sinking an eight ball early.
miles: 9:54, 11:05, 11:06

walking 2:47:00 [1] 9.0 mi (18:33 / mi)
shoes: Starter Carson 4
Ohio Breeding Bird Atlas. Listening for nighthawks (none) and owls (added a great-horned near Hollandsburg). New Paris, Hollandsburg, and New Madison. About a mile in each town, then a long walk on rural moonlit country roads. Beautiful night. Other than possibly New Madison, I don't think any of these towns really have enough habitat for nighthawks. The only plave I have found nighthawks in the whole region are Oxford andf Eaton. I still have to get to Arcanum, Lewisburg, and West Alexandria, all of which are big enough to have some possibilites. maybe.
