Paddling (kayak) 1:50:00 [2] 8.5 mi (4.6 mph)
Super duper secret area. Some light rapids and bounced off a few rocks, another foot of water would have been better.
MTB (road) 40:00 [3] 10.0 mi (15.0 mph) +80m
Bike from takeout back to the car, plus checking out an ATV trail.
Running (trail) 20:00 [2] 2.0 mi (10:00 / mi) +30m 9:33 / mi
Easy jog at some mega secret surprise place. Looked really nice and open, but I suspect it's too "managed" to be suitable for my original plan.
On my way in I heard a bunch of wood cracking and found the source a little farther up the hill; a full 60 ft mature tree that had been blown over and was laying against a couple of its siblings. Right at the exact moment I came up to it, several large chunks peeled off the trunk and crashed to the ground, together with a number of branches dislodged from farther up in the crown. (This all happened about 20-30 feet off the trail, so there was no danger.)
I'm now sure that when a tree falls in the forest and there's someone there to hear it, it make a sound.

Battle Creek, dog park around trails by school, then over to MTB trails, then down to the creek and back along the paved trail. Got an idea for TNT while I was running.

Running (trail) 35:00 [3] 4.3 mi (8:08 / mi)
Lake - Ford loop run with Brian and TCRC, starting at St. Clair. As we entered the lower trail near 44th St., a bee flew into my mouth and stung me on the back part of the roof of my mouth. I continued on to the boathouse with Brian, but bailed out at that point becuase my head was feeling pretty bad. Think two simultaneous ear infections and a sore jawbone. Jogged over to SA for some liquid and a couple of preventive Benadryl, then jogged back to the car in time to meet the rest of the TCRC folks.
