Do I know how to add mileage, or do I know how to add mileage! 4 km as the crow flies, 7.8 km for me. Several legs felt like they were on track and going well, until I ended up way off base, not sure what happened, and took forever to relocate. Case in point #8, deliberately went right by #5 to make sure I was on course, then somehow veered way off course. And #3 -- I have not the faintest idea what I was thinking, turning south at the trail bend instead of going straight. WTH!

And to think I had thought about trying the long today! Yikes!

C • I planned the same route into #8... 1

After the wacky morning, picked up the dogs to "help"* me do some control site checking at McCarthy.

One control feature I couldn't find whatsoever, so will likely need to choose a new one.

*Control site checking likely goes a LOT faster without stopping every 10m to untangle dogs' long lines from vegetation. It was an exercise in patience, both mine and the dogs'. But hopefully they will agree it was a better afternoon than snoozing at home. Or not. One thing I learned is that they're not too fond of bushwacking -- they looked incredibly thrilled slightly relieved each time we reconnected with a trail. Wimps!

All this time today and I only checked about 2/3 of the sites. Perhaps next time the dogs will stay home :)

Contours at Bruce Pit, trails removed from map. Found myself getting worse as the evening went on – hard to maintain concentration.

Watch took forever to connect to satellites, or was being otherwise glitchy. Had to re-attempt several times.

Running is hard... running in the heat is harder... gah
