Brown course at Mt. Penn. Not my favorite park - too rocky to move very fast and the course went through some nasty briars as well. Error at #2 - was where I needed to be but didn't push hard enough through some crap and then wasted a bunch of time looking somewhere else where it was nicer. :) Lost about 5-6 minutes there. Rest of the course went well enough but can really feel the extra weight at the moment.
Time to start this again - short hill loop. Did lots of run 150 paces, walk 100 paces just to get through it. At least it should be easy to see progress - assuming I keep at it. Won't do it in the dark though so will aim for once a week.
I should figure out how to keep a log of the times on this loop - I know it can be done so just need to remember to ask someone how to do it.
Another ramble around FCN just looking at the terrain and finding where the woods are nice and where they're not. There's a good bit of the latter, but plenty of the former.
Finished up walking through the campground loop that's open. There were dozens of large RVs (think big time singer on a road tour) and the population seemed almost entirely men decked out in hunting attire. I hadn't given it much thought ahead of time but had on my neon yellow jacket which was probably a good thing.
TNT - down to the drive, a mile jog with about a half mile walk in the middle, hike back up the hill with two more sections of jogging on the road to the corner. It's going to be a long, slow haul but I'm on track.
Great crowd for dinner; excellent bean soup by Karl.
