| Team Trials blue course on Rockhouse map. My poorest outing in a long time: never felt either mentally or physically sharp. But still nice to try running blue with an elite field. Would have wanted to be about 30 minutes faster, but I made 15-20 minutes of mistakes (about half bad route choices that perpetually landed me in laurel), and I lost at least 10-15 minutes from hamstring cramping which started on the way to 8, and had me completely hobbled on the way to 15. Couldn't even run to the finish. |

| Laid out a 13 control "red" course at Mt. Tom. Mostly OK, but it seemed liked there were a lot more trees horizontal than vertical. Also, I got thoroughly lost on way to "eight" (north of little Mt Tom) and finally relocated 300 meters from where I thought I was. (Abducted by aliens?) |

| Day 1 Red course from last fall. Mostly a vigorous walk; these woods aren't high on the runnability scale, and I didn't feel like falling. A few mistakes, though I always corrected quickly. In spite of easy effort, only 6 and a half minutes slower than when I "raced" it. Biggest problem seemed to be staying on line instead of zigzagging all over the place. Notes: water jugs still at number six (shallow reentrant); took a nice route to number twelve that went right by a hunter's stand. |
