A one-way run in Rock Creek. Alli dropped me off at the Soapstone Valley trailhead after baby swimming classes at the Wilson Pool. I ran down Soapstone to the start of the Western Ridge trail, and then all the way up Western Ridge, around Boundary Bridge, and home. One-way runs are fun.

Late in the evening at the Blair House gym

Event: DVOA Hickory Run Sand Spring
 

Event: QOC Lake Accotink
 

Event: 2017 SART (9/9/17 & 9/10/17)
 

I ran a Blue course from the March 2017 QOC event at Wheaton. When I was here in March, I ran Brown, so a few of the controls were the same. The forest was much more overgrown, especially underfoot, than I recall from March, so it was probably somewhat slower running. I am not sure I ever found two of the controls - on a (non-existing?) pit and a tiny cairn - but I think I was close enough to have seen the flag had there been one. On the day, JTor ran 61, so would have clobbered me. On the bright side, my back basically didn't hurt the entire time, and there was a wonderful wife and cute baby cheering me on at the finish.

Blue - Splits

Sweatfest.

Elliptical intervals at work, 1'-2'-3'-4'-4'-3'-2'-1'.

Pretty much full strength routine at lunchtime. One-legged squats are hard to do while keeping the knee straight.
