 | Orienteering race 45:36 [4]5.2 km (8:46 / km) | |
| |
| DVOA A meet at Fair Hill in NE MD. A short Green course. Very nice terrain. Map is about half open areas with pockets of mostly open woods, so times were fast. Not a very satisfying run, even though the per k time was under 9. I started off sloppy, with a one minute mistake on 2, and a two minute mistake on 5. (The short legs kill me.) Then, I settled down, but I lost 1 1/2 minutes on 8, the fake dot knoll, because from the direction I came in, the flag was hidden behind a root stock and I kept going to the next real knoll. 7th in M50. |

| With Peter, from his house. To the gate, down to the river, up to 47, then back on the road. Solid, training pace throughout: just the sort of run I need to build strength. Temp in low 40's, which is ideal for me on longer runs. |

| Very easy jogging at Mt Tom. Mapped a little vegetation, made one last change on the advanced courses, cursed the leaf-covered rocky ground. |
