Buffalo Long distance at Chestnut Ridge Park. Another good race hitting all the controls right on! Could have done a little better route choices on leg 5 and maybe 11 and 12, but nothing major. Even won best leg time on two legs! What I am behind is only running speed. The forest again very open and most controls were visible at a distance. Still feel I cannot push the running due to left hamstring, but it is bothering less for every day. Super humid day, totally drenched in sweat.

Long - Green X - Splits

Buffalo Middle distance race at Sprague Brook Park. Almost perfect race, hit all controls right on, except 50m off at 10, but only had to run full speed towards the control. What I am behind today is only running speed. Nice open forest. Most controls were visible at a distance.

Buffalo Sprint race at Sprague Brook Park. Big mistake, run direct from 10 to 12, and had to go back to 11 then 12 again, lost 1min. also mistake on 9 (poor direction from 8) and a small hesitation on 4. Should have been 1.5min faster at least with clean run.

Middle - Green-X - Splits

Sprint - Course 2 - Splits

Hiked from Adirondack Mountain Club Loj to Avalanche Lake. Total 4h30min, with about 30min rest and lunch at Avalanche lake. Again tough rocky trail although not as steep as Ampersand. Gorgeous view and cliffs at the lake. most of the trail otherwise was in the forest. Legs and feet quite tired at the end.

Hiked up Ampersand mountain in Adirondack Park, near Tupper Lake. Tough steep and rocky trail to the summit. The view was worth it! Had lunch at the top.

Return trip down Ampersand mountain. It is not much easier to walk down! Tough on the knees.
