Trail/woods running 37:00 [2] 3.3 mi (11:13 / mi)
shoes: NB 993
SPS XC & track. Beautiful, cool, sunny day. On XC course, groomed with a
red line painted (already on the old side). Then a bit on the freshly
resurfaced and painted track - ran into Peter Romanello - walked 2/3rds lap
visiting with him then bk to car. Leaves so green there.

Walking 1:45:00 [1] 2.5 mi (42:00 / mi)
Beth & I & dogs drove to South Bow Rd. entrance to Nottingcook & walked back, a celebration of fall's beginning perhaps and that the moon will be full soon. Very nice being out and not doing much of anything. Bog meadow more dry than I've ever seen. Walk featured Bob Dawkins' Glacial boulder trail - a lot of work to make, one person, maybe a mile long.

Event: Great Brook State Farm
Orienteering race 21:26 2.56 km (8:22 / km)
shoes: Teva
GBFSP forest/field sprints, courses by Bill Pullman. Warmer than I would have thought. Nice courses, demanded attention all the while. No mp's for me tho' was not out of my power to do so but did make a decent effort to avoid. Maybe 45" total error on this sprint: #3, 25", #6 20". Almost went E after first control (vs N) due to preconceived idea - but checked compass...caught it. Quite a few controls close together - took some map study to get it right. Had not id'd the finish & had trouble finding - tables & people, which one(s).... B/B+ performance.

Second sprint. Lost maybe 15" on #3, maybe 10" on #14 (no excuse, had already been there but hidden so to speak the second time), #17 - had wrong control in mind, another preconceived idea - error only averted when I checked code, saw 140, not 132 - second look showed control to be on same type of point, maybe 30m back, 5m into woods. Call it a B+. No mp! TP went from 7 to 11 in the butterfly and had to repair the damage. Ross mp'd on the first I think... Seems that the hamstring has decided it's time to go back to work.
Butterfly portion of #2:
BP, MD, CS taking all in stride
Fun to be in Carlisle & run here, bread and butter place for a run 25 years and 18-19 years ago. Lots of folks there - decent NOD turnout plus other activities. Thanks Bill & NEOC!
Flexibility plus...

Am DP, misty/fog, took an umbrella, good thing as it rained fairly hard.
Trail/woods running 49:20 [2] 4.0 mi (12:20 / mi)
shoes: New Balance 1011
Noon, cloudy, cool. Kept away from roads...Memorial field, bit of the
track then into woods, under Langley & wood strip on other side. Found a
homeless person's shelter....first discarded aluminum cans, then plastic
bag then plastic lean-to partly hidden by sticks & leaves. Inquired...no one home...took a peek inside: mattress, pillow, cooking gear, clothes pins. Considered how nice it might be on warm, mellow mornings but then the coffee, shower, cold wx coming etc.... Stayed in woods, along corn rows, a bit on Clinton (vehicles fast/loud/resoundingly obnoxious), back into woods & finally bk thru Mem fld.

Road running 58:57 6.9 mi (8:33 / mi) +130m 8:04 / mi
shoes: NB 993
NHH home, third in (waning) summer. Need more of these - felt ok but felt like I should have been under 58' - 10:25 near last surprised me. Not the energy of spring, seasonal response perhaps. Hot enough @ 20' to remove T shirt (1980 Silvermine, a bit tight but can still wear). Seemed like a lot of pounding, poor (but uncomplaining) menisci. NB's are in need of replacement. Need to do this Mon & Thurs as in past - about the best thing I do for all-round running stamina. Started raining just as I got home. Hot shower, warm clothes....

Over Winant hill, CW, breezy, very nice. Woods wet from rain, fragrant. Only missing item was energy - wonder where it was.
Guess it had run on ahead.
