 | Orienteering 54:30 [3]*** 7.3 km (7:28 / km) | |
| spiked:12/13c shoes: sarva |
| NEOC Nobscot. Managed to beat the CSU team selection standard (my brother, who hasn't orienteered for at least 12 months) by 12 minutes or so, and the CSU posse by varying amounts of less. Damp but not raining. Great map; slightly odd course-setting (dog-legs and trail runs to add distance to green). |

| Event: CSU Pine Banks

| Orienteering 21:23 [4]*** 2.9 km (7:22 / km) +100m 6:17 / km | |
| spiked:12/15c shoes: sarva |
| Pine Banks park-o. Hot and humid (car said 90F but I don't quite believe it). Nice course by Brendan; not bad orienteering by me but got caught in the green a couple of times and got beaten by John by 45sec. No, wait: timing error: I got John by 45 seconds. Nice to finish my CSU park-o career with a win. |

Tuesday May 30 |
| Running 1:05:00 [2]8.18 mi (7:56 / mi) | |
| shoes: henri dutilleux |
| Museum - Anderson loop. Very sluggish; at the beginning was suffering from sore quads, sore knees, asthma, indolence, and leprosy. By the end, merely the sore quads remained. (Yes, the leprosy was that bad.)
The secret to enjoying a run along the Charles is: 1) have it be borderline foggy and getting dark so you can't see too far; 2) intend to turn back at every bridge so it's never too far (initial plan was to go around the Museum bridge and then back via Longfellow, which must be at least 2.2 miles total); and 3) be about to leave Cambridge so you start enjoying it for its own sake again. low 60s F, dewpoint in the low 50s. |

| Easy at 9:10pm. Red Sox - Blue Jays. Boring game. After barely being able to walk due to sore knees (both of them) for most of the day after yesterday, it was nice to get a bit of motion in. Tentative diagnosis: tight quads. |
