QOC - Fountainhead
Super fun green course at Fountainhead. I love the terrain and this area would be magnificent with a map update. Had to be in College Park for Scott's graduation so decided to drive down early and do this instead of the DVOA event at Hibernia. Had to start right away after arriving and didn't have my head in the race for the first five minutes so just sort of ran - in the wrong direction unfortunately - for a while until I decided I really ought to pay attention to what my compass was telling me. Other than this 5 minute error had a pretty clean run.

Excellent steak dinner with Scott afterwards.

TNT Wednesday edition with Clem and Dasha. Despite thunderstorms earlier in the evening it was perfect running weather by the time we got out. I had mowed the lawn earlier in the day before the storms and it was hot and humid but the storms cooled things off nicely. Did four miles on the drive at a bit over 10 minute pace which surprised me since it felt like I was pushing harder than that. :(

I & I routine still working. Very nice evening all in all.

A little concerned that my knees would really hurt this morning after two days in a row of running but they're about the same as always. Which while not great is still good news.

TNT (temporarily moved to MW) - with Dasha and Clem on the trails at Tyler. Pretty slow but managed to run the old loop with three big hills only walking a very short section on the third hill after it flattened out a bit. Saw a fox.
