| BrGrOr Sprint 2.54k, 19:01, 7.29?/k second to a M50 Norwegian visitor (per Eric Weyman). Very good run, only second to last control where I lost maybe 8 secs due to confusion - was looking at bldg corner when the control was higher up at end of hedge. Neat, busy map w/ many bldgs, very accurate. Left groin muscle did not bother me & still does not even tho I am aware of it.
382 mi, 7.25 hrs w/ maybe 40? stops. 202/9, Keene, Brattleboro, 91S, Ma tkpe to TSP to 84 to 209 thru DWG, Shroudsburg, 33S/22W to Bethlehem. Like all the pastorality of this route. Dorm room which is fine, window open, birds singing, people playing outside w/ frisbee on hartop, a bit of tolerable city.

Green Sprint - Splits |
Friday May 23 |
| Note | |
| |
| Rest day, left groin muscle protesting. When I learned I might get $1000 for my old Volvo I went home at lunch hr & vacuumed & cleaned it a bit instead of running w/ Diane...likely $500 worth of cleaning in 40':) |
Thursday May 22 |
| orienteering 54:00 [3] 5 km (10:48 / km) | |
| shoes: Brooks Cascadia |
| Fall BD brown course at Nottingcook plus some k to & from. Walk/jog, 'not an easy course' to quote or to perceive... scratchy (like Pawtuckaway), thickish forest. Left groin pull fm last night, wait and see. Z&M satisfied for once. |
Wednesday May 21 |
| trail/woods running race 21:59 [5] 3.1 mi (7:04 / mi) vdot: 44.5 | |
| |
| Concord Hospital 5k - thought I'd be below 21:30 so disappointed there.
Stood in chilly air & then rain for a bit too long. 5200+ entrants, but incl walkers. 6:54 (felt faster), 7:17 (sl up), 7:09 (up & down), :40. Wanted maybe 6:40, 6:50, 7+. Good food, lots of freebies etc. 23:30+/- 2 yrs ago. I'd do well to go to track & remind myself of 6:30mi pace. |

PR, only bit that got me OOB was last split, grad uphill. Thought I should run another although that was not my initial plan. Started but w/o enthusiasm so stopped after first split which was 2:36, good start but so what:). Dissolve resolve. |
Sunday May 18 |
| trail/woods running 44:40 [4] 6.3 mi (7:04 / mi) | |
| shoes: New Balance 992 |
| 3 XC loops at SPS first thing - about 60, blue, lt N'ly breeze. Started at SPS side vs 89. Have not done so in long, long time, prefer latter. Always of benefit to start running downhill. Even loosened up 800m as it was first thing vs mid or late day. Felt tired on first (must be left over fm yest), 2nd better/NC direction, third had the 300 split - not sure where that came fm...but long slow backside fm this direction.
