Running 10:00 [1] 1.5 km (6:40 / km)
shoes: Grid Shadow 9

I had planned on going for a long run, and decided to start out in Riverside Park to do a little field checking. My long run was side tracked by a 45 minute conversation with an old guy in the park.

I'm finally making some progress on the map. 2-3 hours of drafting on Friday and 3-4 hours on Sunday. It is taking a long time, and I definitely won't be finished by the time I leave Guelph.

Hillside Festival. Great day. Too bad we couldn't get tickets for the whole weekend.

North along the speed. Felt really tight around the knee. I need to return to my old stretching routines.

Nice easy morning run. Found some raspberries along the railway, and the mulberry tree at the Neeve St. bridge is still bearing fruit.

My face is still swollen, but I think it is improving. I could feel my cheeks sloshing as I ran. I'm feeling out of shape these days. I haven't done much running and it is showing. This run was in Short Hills with frequent raspberry pit stops.

To/from UG campus.

Orienteering 45:00 [1]

Hanging streamers on the UG campus for tonight.

Note

I was really looking forward to running the UG sprints with the Stars crew, but I had an unfortunate incident cycling home from work. A wasp or bee (I didn't see it) flew into my face and stung my lip. Within 5 minutes of getting into our apartment my lower lip had ballooned 3x larger than normal, and my whole lower jaw was beginning to swell. Laura dropped me off at the emergency room, and once I was assessed by the triage nurse she continued on to the UG campus to drop off the maps.

The highlight of the evening was being asked by the triage nurse if I have any known allergies. My fat-faced, mumbled response:"well, I'm not sure, but I might be allergic to bee or wasp stings." I tried to smile, but I don't think the nurse could tell.

Star Sprint Champs. Really fun. I ran the first sprint well. No nav mistakes, except for some hesitations. My fitness really limited me on the first sprint. I haven't been running much lately, but that is ok. The second sprint went well until I skipped CP 15 and went straight to 16. Oh dear!

Saturday Jul 14, 2007 #

Note

Saw Austria and the US play in the FIFA under-20 tournament. Fun despite the rain and wind.

Running 34:00 [2] 6.0 km (5:40 / km)

Ran through Riverside Park with an aerial photo. I started tracing the photo in OCAD last night. This is going to take a lot longer than I thought. I hope I can get it done before we leave Guelph.

My current obsession is a killer raspberry patch in a nearby park. In the heyday of my raspberry picking career (circa 1992), I would have wept tears of joy to have found a raspberry patch such as this one.
