Event: MNOC Como Adventure Run #3
 

MNOC Como adv run #3 set by Mike and Julia

Nice dry evening for the third in series ; slight disadvantage in that most folks had already 2 runs under their belt in same park . mass start and fast pace thru 3 when filed had spread out. ran with Phil S thru 6 . Got stymied by zombie at #13; zombie (Julia) agressively guarded the epunch. Got through after about 1 minute then got blindsided at #15 by another zombie (Richard Chin) so had to do the penalty run to "hell" . Fun evening.

Long - Splits

Early swim at White Bear Y .

Leaf mulching and mowing

Clear sunny morning in Shanghai so took a run before breakfast in the park across street from Renaissance Yangtze River hotel.

Many people out there ( but not crowded) doing either tai chi (groups of 20 or so) , dancing, badminton , jogging , walking , backwards walking with shoulder slapping ( 3) ( purpose?) , caged bird singing groups ( It seems people bring their caged birds from their apartments and gather for an open air group tweeting-singing session) and one guy in ancient martial dress with 3 ' long sword doing sword moves . All very interesting and calm with the music and bird chatter ( compared with typical day in Rest of Shanghai

Back to hotel , swim, steam room, breakfast and taxi to Pudong for flight back to US (arriving in time for breakfast again the same day )

10m pool and plane to catch so cut it off at 10 minutes
