Sprint A on Bethel (CT) Schools map. Nice course with good route choice problems and plenty of fast running. Lost about 1:30 on the last control when my brain switched off and I went one parking lot too far to attack (right past the S/F!). Otherwise pretty clean except for some hesitations finding my way through thicker vegetation. 70's, humid and overcast. Forerunner measured 4.54 km.

Sprint B. Another nice course. This course used all different control points than the first one but covered the same area of the map. I don't recall seeing any of the 2nd course bags while running the first course. Familiarity with the route choices helped some. A clean run, although I wasn't pushing as hard as for the first sprint. A large group (of kids and their parents) was gathering in the north end of the map, so car and pedestrian traffic came into play on legs 7 - 8 and 10 - 11. Forerunner measured 3.76 km.

Sprint A - Splits

Sprint B - Splits

Road intervals, N on 66 and back. Was supposed to be 2 x (2 x 400 + 1 x 800) but I must have entered 0.5 km rather than 0.5 mi for the 800m leg when I programmed my Forerunner. So it was actually 2 x 400, 1 x 500 and repeat. 90 sec recovery between. Splits 1:41, 1:38, 2:04, 1:39, 1:36, 2:03. Target was 6:40/mi pace (=1:40 for 400m, 2:05 for 500m). 70 but quite humid. Beat the rain by about an hour.

Around the block in Malden Bridge. 70's and muggy.

Peebles Island SP. 60's, overcast, humid.
