Set out to do the Blue course at Bowie with Darcy. Only 8.5 k and 27 controls - piece of cake. But Bowie is kind of crappy in the best of times, and this time of year was even worse with all the grasses and green not dead like it is in the winter. And, believe it or not, the water features were sometimes dry and missing! Anyway, we did about half the controls with varying degrees of sucess. But I enjoyed the day and the company. The distance is what we actually covered, not "as the crow flies."

Walk to start and back.

An easy ride down to the terminus for an ultra held today on the W&OD bike trail. Added about a mile more on the ride back.

Ran down to track then did 10 laps in lane 6 - running 1/2 lap and walking 1/2 lap. Then walked home. The 200+ meter portion were 60-63 seconds each.
Lap times were: 329 317 300 301 301 311 255 255 257 309 311 400.

Left hip very sore again. Woke me up this morning from a sound sleep. But it was too beautiful to stay inside and sulk for another day. Head is stuffy but sore throat is gone. Lungs burning a bit. Okay, I am a mess!
