TNT. Eric and Tom there. I ran with Tom and we were generally pretty easy. I tried to work the one big hill and pushed pretty hard the last 20. Cooled down around the school and slowed down with Eric.
Got there late, and tried to redeem myself by keeping it firm. Did a half-Indian in 26:30, which I believe is 1 minute faster than before. Rolling along.
Then down Forbidden until the first steepish decline, and back. Did a bit of running around Sandy's to round out the hour.
I wish I was motivated to expend my energies towards things with more commercial relevance than orienteering, but I really have so little interest in that...

"Warm-up"--the most superfluous warm-up ever, maybe?

Like a sprint, and bloody hot. Decent run, but a little rough during the middle.

The long pause and change in scale got me on the first leg. Lost maybe 1.5 minutes there. Also, an odd sensation--I felt like I was naked on the first leg. A combination of tights and the airflow generated by running in that oppressive heat...
Started dragging a little at the end, but Vadim didn't.
