Did 6 miles on the drive plus the jog down and back up. Was hoping 10 minute pace would feel comfortable for that distance and it did:
1039 (a somewhat slow start :)
945
957
952
944
1001

Planned to do 3 to see where my speed was but knees weren't cooperating. Still, pleased with the speed even if I couldn't sustain it.

Jog down to the drive and back up the side trails plus some walking on the drive.

Ran into Bruce who I know from AR who was in the park for some biking. Talked a little about maybe having me set some of the course for the 2007 Cradle of Liberty AR. One format he mentioned that was used recently sounded intriguing - there was a score-orienteering section at the end of the race and you'd have whatever time you wanted until the official end of the race to collect controls. This way the faster teams had more time to collect points but had to keep working until the end in case another team collected more and everyone was finishing at the same time.

TNT - nice crowd tonight; Dennis even came with us. Did 5 miles on the drive at about 9:30 pace with Dasha encouraging me enough that I managed to keep it up.

A nice feast afterwards to celebrate Dasha's birthday.

situp, pushup, etc. routine
