Hiking 1:50:00 [0]
Another morning Rock Creek hike, this one with Marit, as well as the usual crowd. Started in the north, went past boundary bridge, then south on Western Ridge trail to the footbridge, and back up north along the creek. Saw what I think was a 4-foot long black rat snake right on the trail (https://goo.gl/photos/wC1kxjbcJFoMBXr69). Very cool!

Hiking 2:00:00 [0]
Logging hiking (with intensity 0) so I can keep track of general activity during my recovery. Went for a nice hike in Rock Creek with Alli and Barney from home. Valley trail to the stone bridge with a stop for Barney to play in the river, then back over the top. Stopped by the farmer's market on the way home: popsicles for everyone!
Orienteering 31:30 [2] 3.2 km (9:51 / km)
shoes: Yellow Mizunos 2014
I went orienteering!
After a nap, I drove over to Gallaudet University, which is the national university for the education of the deaf and hard of hearing, for QOC's Summer Short Series event, organized by Mark Mace.
Mark offered to sprint courses on the (I think) brand-new map of this fun little campus with some nice tricky areas, and some good contours for being in the middle of a city. I tried out jogging for the first time since the surgery, and jogged the first 15 minutes of the course. After that I alternated, one leg walking / one leg jogging the rest of the way. The conclusion is that I am not ready for a return to running yet, as my right side tightened up pretty quickly, including the lower back, hip flexor, and hamstring. I think there is still some healing that needs to happen, as well as strengthening to correct for the imbalance I must have developed over the last year of overcompensating.
Still, it was really fun to be out orienteering, and I enjoyed Mark's map and course!

Back from an amazing trip to Montana, where I had a great time with family, friends, and goats. It is not fun to immerse oneself back into the swampy, humid cesspit that is DC in the middle of the summer.
My back is doing ok - I did some hiking in Montana, and that was mostly ok, with some residual soreness. I will continue to be very careful with it for the next few weeks.
In the meantime, I need to get serious about losing weight, so it's time to start counting calories again.
