| Sprint Finals at Cranbury Park (CT), Sprint A. I'm using a very strict definition of a spike here, the total time lost on the various tiny errors probably amounts to something n the order of a minute. |
| Orienteering race 14:49 [4]*** 2.33 km (6:22 / km) +52m 5:43 / km | |

| Sprint B. Cleaner, my only real error was stopping inside the circle at #11, momentarily confused as to where I could be, with the control just off my right shoulder — pretty minor. |
| Orienteering race 17:39 [4]*** 3.15 km (5:36 / km) +33m 5:19 / km | |
| spiked:20/21c shoes: VJ Falcons #1 |
| "All comers" mass-start Sprint C. Leading a pack early on, then I was in hot pursuit of some pretty fast guys on the final loop. It finally came down to my closing a gap on Spike over the last few controls. I caught him at the last one, and then it was an all-out dash to the finish line, which I think he won by a step or two. |

| Hang gliding! (Morningside) 8 [1] | |
| shoes: Wal*Mart Carson |
| Sled rides. |
| Running in terrain 12:54 [4]1.16 km (11:07 / km) +137m 7:00 / km | |
| shoes: Wal*Mart Carson |
| Morningside 450x1, but instead of taking the road, this time I did it straight, up to the 150 then through the woods. On the way back down I took an overgrown trail that I spotted on the way up. Probably doesn't make much difference which way I go up, the time is likely the same because it's dominated by the climb, but I think for descending, the trail is probably the fastest route. |

| Unicycling 25:22 [2]2.37 mi (10:42 / mi) | |
| |
| To Town Hall for meeting and back, In The Dim on the way there, and In The Dark on the way back (hatlamp plus led blinky taillight). I was carrying an empty tupperware container on the way there (returning it after having eaten the cookies), and that wasn't a problem in terms of balance. |

| On entering the garage to do the pull-ups, I came across the most unambiguous sign that I have mice: I saw a mouse. It was scampering along the base of the wall, then got to the corner and scooted vertically right up to the roof, with a couple of pauses. Pretty impressive. Now, it's not too surprising to see a mouse in the garage, which is porous enough that there's no realistic chance of keeping them out, short of ridding the neighborhood of them. And a mouse in the garage is not quite a mouse in the house. Nevertheless, I rounded up the old mousetrap that I remembered seeing out there and set it. In the morning it had been sprung, but had failed to catch Mr. Mousey. So I reset it, and we'll give it another try, hoping the intended victim hasn't developed an aversion. |

| Absolutely beautiful day. Didn't get out for any exercise, though. Partly because my motivation was flagging because I can't breathe due to all the wagreed pollen. But Nancy and I took my parents out to dinner tonight to celebrate my mother's 80th birthday, which was a fine time indeed. |
