Note
A not so clean outing at the Frankfort airport where I didn't quite figure out the Terminal 1/2 bit at first. Eventually made my way to the correct Hertz counter and met up with Peter and Gail. A nice ride to the event area and a great little house where we're staying. Had some trouble getting internet but eventually it was sorted out. (I now have a cable feeding in through the living room window.)

trail 34:56 [3]
Short loop in the heat of the day. Figured my knees already hurt so maybe this would get them to stop hurting. And hopefully it will help me sleep on the plane to Germany.
Got through the run by obsessing over things that could go wrong - twist an ankle, break a leg, have my flight delayed, have it canceled (there are thunderstorms predicted for this evening), somehow mess up meeting Gail and Peter at the airport - and before I knew it the run was over. ;)

Note
First random occurrence of the trip - ran into Hannah Burgess at the airport as they delayed her flight and made her change planes. I was oblivious and would have walked right by her but she was moe alert.

hiking 1:01:00 [3]
TNT - hike in the Wissahickon with Sandy who is still being cautious about her knee. Good to catch up. Ran the last 5 minutes. How can 5 minutes seem so hard...
Then proceeded to eat way too much...

Knees are very bad today. This makes no sense to me.
trail 34:23 [3]
Short loop; ran the meadow, got a little past the crosswalk but then walked to the fire hydrant.
Thought about goals for WMOC. Have none for the sprint other than to enjoy it. For the long, I think top half should be doable. The A final for the Long would be good but I really have no idea if that is within reach.

orienteering 23:22 [3]
Vice President's Cup Relay and DVOA Summer Meeting
Joined up with Ann and Hugh MacMullan for a rockin' team - we had 10 handicap points worth a 40 minute deduction which led us to a second place finish behind only the team of Oriana and Wyatt (who ran two legs). Angelica ran all three legs and had the fastest handicapped time (she was worth 9 points - 3 per leg) but apparently skipped a control and so mp'ed.
The orienteering was surprisingly fun. Ran the same course and had the same forking as Mary Frank and we were pretty much neck and neck the whole time.
Correction: Mary's team was scored incorrectly at the event and they ended up ahead of us as well.

Lots and lots of walking the last several days. Saint Petersburg is an awesome city - really, really glad I came.
