| Leg 3 of Tiomila. Matthias handed off to me at about 1:15am. Winning time on the leg was just under 40 minutes. Felt awesome running at night, probably a little too awesome. Lost about 12 minutes on number 2 after being about 50m too short on several attacks. After that, I was moving fast, got a little off-line on number 6, losing another 2 or 3 minutes, but otherwise just some small hesitations/mistakes. Only considerable following was to #9. Swedish woods are so much fun to run through. Pia's headlamp was excellent. |

| Event #2 of the 2008 Boston Park Series, at Menotomy Rocks, set by Nikolai. Nice course. I took a look at my compass before the start and then put it in my pocket. Worked out pretty well as I beat Ross by 10 seconds or so, which I would probably have spent checking my compass. Legs a little tired from yesterday's exercises, but I was able to push pretty hard and still keep it clean. |
