Cycling 2:07:40 [4] 34.0 mi (3:45 / mi)
slept:7.0 weight:203.8lbs shoes: Bike: Jamis Coda Comp - hybrid

2.05pm: A gorgeous day, 66degF and sunny, not exactly December weather but certainly not complaining. Cycled out to Norristown transportation Center. 47.53 to Conshocken coffee shop - it was closed. Out 1.02.35. Back 1.05.05. Kept up a good strong pace both ways.
Amazed at people. On the hill near the skateboard park a little kid on a kiddie razor fell in front of me. I stopped to see if he was okay, got a mixed response, so looked around for parent. Eventually suss'd out who it was and the woman was nonchalantly walking down hill with other kid not in the least bit concerned. A busy path with runners, walkers, cyclists and she was letting her young kid just head down the hill at least 100 yards away from her. Lucky he didn't get hurt or hurt anyone else!
Anyway hit my revised target of 1500 miles cycling for the year so a happy person.

Stretching 10:00 [0]

6.20am: Later start this am, then got blocked at train tracks, so out Parkway and out West River Dr on path as more traffic at this time. The tree roots are really tearing up the path in quite a few places. Back via Kelly Dr and down to South St bridge and back via skateboard park as train blocking tracks on the way back as well. Slow steady pace, a nice morning.

DVOA Event- Batsto NJ: Green Course
First orienteering event since S6D at beginning of August. Nice to be out in the woods. Plan was to take it easy and if planar fasciitis played up I would walk/ stop. Bob Burg planned an excellent course requiring you to use accurate compass work and detailed contour reading. Had a dreadful time with first control, and attacked it 3 times, 2 of them walking in from attackpoint before I finally found it. What should have taken 3- 3.5 mins took 22.47!! I should have aimed off to the left, obviously a little rusty. Apart from that I then had a pretty clean run. It was good practice to go straight route for most controls reading the subtle contour detail. A lot of blueberry bushes to run through. While not fast, I was pleasantly surprised that I was running more than I thought I would. The weather was perfect. Overall, apart from the first control, happy with the run and it was great to be out in the woods orienteering again. Now at home, the foot hurts.
