Green M course at Fox Forest. Rainy, slippery conditions, and having trouble running more than several steps at a time in the woods. Bad mistake at #4 cost about 6 minutes, as I left the trail too early and then had trouble relocating in what seems like a relatively imprecise area of the map. My watch said 1:13:10. Official time was (I think) 1:12:48.

Stayed in a B&B between A meet days, and had the happy circumstance of housemates Rick and Susie.

Event: UNO Boulder Dash
 

last 45 minutes of Rhonda's morning class, cleverly having another cup of coffee until the crunches were safely out of the way.

perambulating in NYC with Rhonda while we wait for Jessica to get out of work. Folks on the street are dressed strangely to our country eyes.

McLean CCW loop from corner of Barndoor Hills Rd. Putting a little effort into it, and a PR, even better than on Obama day, when I was floating on air. Hamstring is getting more and more tender, although it calmed down about 50% after about 25 minutes.

A bit of G creep, after two straight evenings with ice cream.

Went to Boston today, and packed some clothes in case I got back to Westfield in time for the Stanley Park run. I got there just in time, but by then I was much too tired and achy from the ride to be into it, so just drove on by. And then it started raining really hard anyway.

It is getting very beary around here. Dogs chased up another one while we had them out on their morning constitutional. So we changed course and Rhonda did some powerful whistling, and the dogs were recovered.

In the gym with Rhonda, Charles and Raakel. Raakel wants Charles to get exercise. He is not so sure.
