| 30' at gym & a walk with dogs at Audubon center - paths were not icy, a run would have worked. |
Saturday Jan 20 |
| trail/woods running 30:00 [3]2.5 mi (11:59 / mi) | |
| |
| BHS field, some sun, out of wind, track was mostly ice...a chance to skate some laps if I'd come prepared. |

Wednesday Jan 17 |
| trail/woods running 35:00 [3] | |
| |
| quite cold but first headed south toward sun... warming up & into a neighborhood where wind can't get up to steam - good to go running in cold...reminder of energetic runs long ago in true January cold...recall Jan 2 '77 when it was 2 deg ...ran to Mt Auburn Hosp, Newton to Camb, 8 mi, looked like, well...BigFoot? |

| to the gym...depressing outside or the wrong attitude today...likely the latter. |
Friday Jan 12 |
| trail/woods running 35:00 [3]3.0 mi (11:40 / mi) | |
| |
| Concord HS track at noon - 5 x 400 at 7:50 pace or so & 7:42 mile...wow! Track visits are easy...no footing issues, almost no thought...just simple issues...how hard/long, pain or not...the above points out current aversion to pain...for the time being. if i could park my efforts in the prime of an unfettered day, i'm sure i'd come up with more pain. |

| orienteering 45:00 [2]3.0 mi (14:59 / mi) | |
| |
| after work with usual suspects. had a nottingcook xerox
in hand, O walk/jog, again assessing fieldwork & revisiting
terrain not seen for a year or more - always refreshing to depart old, well-used trails, in terrain & mind. spent some miserable moments today with ocad, template adjustment
& consequences. nothing like ten fingers moving mylar over basemap this-a-way & that & presto...ocad 10 will solve that...
called ed hicks for a bailout of various ocd enigmas... |
Tuesday Jan 9 |
| trail/woods running 45:00 [3]3.0 mi (14:59 / mi) | |
| |
| an 'at noon' today for those of us who work for a living where runs are early AM, noon or post-work...
windy at the door (state hospitals have hundreds of acres of open grounds...to promote sanity...), woods warmer, warmed up, finished on Concord HS track, 4x400, last 98" ...once upon a time, I ran 98 secs in my sleep. Spring always has promise for improvement...but finally we cannot improve, even relatively?
note:
entered late Jan. Craftsbury ski event for some kms & views but it likely won't happen... |

Sunday Jan 7 |
| orienteering (mapping) 3:00:00 [1]3.0 mi (1:00:00 / mi) | |
| |
| Three hours in Nottingcook with the dogs. Another small parcel and overlap. Once in awhile, forget details of an area Ive mapped & thus look at the fieldwork as a spectator. ..interesting.... 304 hours of fieldchecking, 2 yrs this April. The boat or house would be in good shape with those hours...
Naturally, dogs roll on dead things, today Zoe for a change. Had a scare yest: got 3 miles to the forest & site of work, also down 200 yds of dirt, puddled road. Looked to the right front seat with a start... wheres the map/fieldwork?! which prob has 75 hrs work on the mylar, dont know how much how much is unscanned. Im thinking I left it on top of the car as I was getting things together! Panic - I came close to 50mph now & then driving back home...nothing on the road, but more likely in the first 2-300 meters out the drive. But nothing, no squashed, muddied, mylar/backboard/compass. Into the house I went...sigh... it was on a shelf in the mud room...reprieve...like a mother who found her lost kid at K mart...but who cares about kids when compared to lost fieldwork-:) |
Saturday Jan 6 |
| orienteering (mapping) 2:45:00 [1]3.0 mi (55:00 / mi) | |
| |
| once rain stopped, proved good for mapping, finishing up small bits. Had one discrepancy of around 30 meters, will have to see what went wrong tomorrow. Saw some mushrooms, thousands of larvae in a pool, 69 deg in Concord...bad times are coming for man...
Also let go the 6 mice (that were living in Petco house); took the whole house to a place in the forest by a storage bldg,
pick up the 'playpen' tomorrow. I'm pretty sure they'd rather be wild than have food & shelter in a 'prison'. There'll be more. We've caught about 25 since Oct. |
