Orienteering race 1:49:20 [4] *** 9.0 km (12:09 / km) +303m 10:24 / km
spiked:14/19c shoes: Falcon spikes 2007
Blue course at NEOC's Powissett Peak Halloween-O. Lot's of what I remember as traditional Massachusetts terrain and vegetation.
Visibility was variable, and the underbrush was rather thick in many spots. Wore shorts and gaiters - would have been nice to have my knees covered...
1 good blowout - #4 (5+ minutes) and some more minor bobbles (5, 10, 18).

Run race (pavement) 26:03 [4] 5.0 km (5:13 / km)
shoes: Brooks
Project Extra 5 k race. Felt uninspired and never really got into a good pace or felt relaxed.
Got smoked by #2 son (24:30), but beat #4 son, 32 or so.
Really should do more road races. And be more consistent in my training - periodic speed work would be helpful.

shoes: Brooks
Evening run through the neighborhood, not particularly inspired, but it was nice out, I made myself go out the door, and I fit it in between work, doing a little bit more on the construction and having to get dressed back up to present some grant awards for the education foundation I belong to. Always nice to give away a few grand for some worthwhile projects!
