EMPO local event at Colonie Town Park. Fast running due to open fields and an extensive trail network, making navigation fairly straightforward too. Still lost about 3:30 by trying to go too fast on a map I am pretty familiar with (I've set courses here a few times and updated the map in 2001). Epunch was in use but the clear box wasn't working correctly so I had to pin punch from the 5th control on (and got a printout of my Highlander splits with meaningless times). Overcast and in the upper 60's, so nice running weather. Forerunner shows I covered about 5 km.
