| Event: WCOC - US Team Fundraiser B-Meet & Sprint |
 | Orienteering race 1:03:01 [4] 6.9 km (9:08 / km) | |
| |
| Red course at Tarryville. Perfect fall day, around 60 deg. A rare combination of feeling healthy (finally) and (almost) clean navigating. Only one miss, 1:30-2:00 minutes lost. |
 | Orienteering race 13:55 [4] 1.5 km (9:17 / km) | |
| |
| Perhaps I should have quit while I was ahead. I expected to be slow (after running the red), but I couldn't find the flags even when I was on top of them. Lost 2:30 minutes on this short (technically easy!) sprint. Just wasn't thinking clearly. |

 | Orienteering 50:00 [2] 4 km (12:30 / km) | |

| Mt. Tom, easy. Trying some new routes. Time doesn't include mapping the changes in the white trail, which I need to include on the map for my meet (or change some control locations). |

 | Trail Run 1:07:01 [3] 7.5 mi (8:55 / mi) | |
| ahr:139 |
| With Peter, the Frost over Mt Orient to Heatherstone Br. and back. First hard effort over an hour in almost a year. I felt good throughout, so very encouraging. One unusual sighting: Peter struggling to keep up on the climb up Mt Orient. (But I was chasing him, as usual, all the way down.) 26:29 (top), 8:58 (brook) (35:28), 9:36 (top), 21:56 (31:32). |

| UMass loop, 40's, dusk. Moderate pace, but no letting up. Venus was so bright I thought at first it must be a plane.

| Miserable rain from hurricane Wilma, so I ran at the indoor Smith track. Goal was 21:00, which wasn't too tough. But had to bear down the last mile. 6:58 (144), 6:59 (153), 6:52 (156) |
