| Went running with Ian. We took the T to Davis Square and then ran to Middlesex Fells, ran around in Middlesex Fells, and then ran back to Davis Square. My knees were hurting by the end, but in general I felt pretty good. |

| Went running with Brendan tonight. The weather was really, really nice. We ran from the physics building down to the Charles, and then I did the Eliot to Western loop. I saw a rabbit on the Boston side of the Charles, which surprised me. Where does it live? |

| Went to the NEOC meet at Rocky Woods. I did pretty badly through a combination of my and my compass's stupidity. I sent my own compass back to Brunton in the hopes that they will send me a working compass, which they haven't yet, so I rented a compass from NEOC. The rental compass left some things to be desired, such as actually pointing north. Unfortunately I was not paying enough attention to the map and terrain to realize that part of the reason that I was unable to be even remotely accurate while compass baring was that my compass was not pointing north and was changing direction constantly. I was also not paying enough attention to where I was in general, especially on the longer legs. I need to train more on 1:15000 maps. Even once I realized the map was 1:15000, I was not very confident about how far I needed to go. |
