| Event: Northeast Sprint Championships
|
 | Orienteering race 25:28 [4]3 km (8:29 / km) | |
| |
| First of 3 sprints at Trout Brook. Pretty clean overall. Some hesitations, small misses, a poor route choice to 15. But I was moving better through the terrain, and able to read the map on the run (thanks to the 1:5,000!) |
| Orienteering race 19:17 [4]2.3 km (8:23 / km) | |
| |
| Sprint 2. A decent run, and clean navigating. |
| Orienteering race 21:30 [4]2.2 km (9:46 / km) | |
| |
| Felt a bit slow, especially through the junky woods. And made my only 30+ second mistake on the day when I let John F. lead me too far left to #7 instead of #5. |

Saturday Oct 22 |
| Orienteering 37:31 [3]3.3 km (11:22 / km) | |
| |
| Ran the yellow course for the upcoming Mt Tom meet, easy pace. It's a bit too hard and long for yellow, so I'll make a couple changes. Made one mistake that I'll have to go back and see if I can blame on the map: probably not. |
Thursday Oct 20 |
| grass (tempo) 24:03 [4]3.3 mi (7:17 / mi) | |
| |
| 3 laps around UMass field. No time to stretch or warm up much, just ran hard start to finish. Good times on the last two laps (though distance might be inflated a bit). Another encouraging day. 8:26, 7:57, 7:39. |
Wednesday Oct 19 |
| Trail Run 49:28 [3]5.5 mi (8:59 / mi) | |
| |
| From Amethyst to Mt Orient and back. 200 m. of climb. Another good run. On the way up I met an Amherst College freshman XCountry runner (Sandra Walter) who was unsure where the trail went, and we ran together the rest of the way. Made me run a bit harder than planned! 26:35, 22:51. |
Tuesday Oct 18 |
| Trail Run 52:22 [4]6.2 mi (8:26 / mi) | |
| ahr:145 max:158 |
| Frost to Atkins and back, with Peter. Good steady effort, helped by having Peter to push me, especially on the way back. Felt hip a bit on some downhills, but the best it's been in 9 months! 8:51, 5:13, 2:24, 6:16, 5:18 (28:04), 5:42, 4:56, 2:10, 4:24, 7:05 (24:18). |
