trail running 57:57 [3]
weight:140lbs shoes: Air Max Trail
Trails on Greenfield ridge. Included 5 times up a reasonably steep hill (about 1:35 to 1:40 each time), which was what I planned. Sure glad I hadn't planned more as I wouldn't have made it.
Back at the office I looked up the topo map on Topozone to see what the vertical was on the hill I'd done, and that reminded me of a source of irritation -- the newer version of the local topos, metric, 1:25,000, 5 meters -- are much worse than the old ones. I don't know why, but the contours are much more generalized. It's not that the old ones were perfect, but they sure were a lot better. You can use the old ones for some decent orienteering. The new ones are almost useless.
