| Possum Trot. Challenging course, especially with the snow and ice. Icebugs were definitely worth the purchase. Good showing by the MN contingent.
Closer look at the map and more comments later. I happened to be in the right place at the beginning. I saw Pete leading the group to number 2, but was far enough back to see Swampfox hesitate (maybe even bend down to tie shoe?), then Eric, then David F. peeled to the left up the road. That made my decision. From there I had to run hard to stay with them until the pace leveled off. With those guys plus Andy? most of first loop, a little off the back then regained. Not sure when Spike joined. David and I went north from the map exchange and were looking for skips which caused only mistake of the daay. We both ran righ past the trail we were aiming for. That opened the gap that we couldn't recover from Justin and Tom. I think south along the road was a better choice on that leg. Then second loop ran a lot with David, Andy and Spike. Skipped 23 and never saw Andy again. Saw Justin and Tom leaving 24, but couldn't make up the time. Running with David, I thought many times of taking the flatter route along road or open terrain, but couldn't justify the risk of a big mistake. David gained the 15 seconds on me between control 29 and 30. Legs just couldn't respond. | ||

| I beat Ian. More Later. Mt. O sprint. What a blast. Made 1 big mistake on #6. Ended up running a big chunk of the course with David F. from St. Louis. Had problems punching on a control and he opened a gap I couldn't close on the sprint to the finish.

| Travel to Kansas City. Five people in our "cozy" room. Currently trying to warm it up with a travel hairdryer providerdby our host Days Inn. Ian complained about having to walk up the 3 flights of steps to our room. Too bad.
Looking forward to a fun day tomorrow after a good night of snuggling. | ||

| Not too much damage from the Thanksgiving weekend. Only gained 4 pounds, and i actually made my goal of doing some physical activity every day. Didn't eat as healthy as I have been trying to, but not as bad as I usually do when I am down there. | ||
