Event: NEOC - Mt. Tom
 

Mt Tom all 18 course. Hamstrings acting up quite a bit, and lost for long stretches of time in NE Kingdom. Not my best work. Route: 6-7-8-15-18-17-14-16-13-12-11-10-9-5-4-3-2-1. Trouble finding 8 since I approached from the side and it was almost down by the stream. Wandered back and forth for quite a while, then up to the road and down to the stream where I found it. Got confused near 14 and wandered quite a while until I ran into Pavi who was leaving the area. Lost about 15 minutes wandering around looking for 16, before relocating from a stream bend about 100 m away. Better from there, but real slow and getting a bit lightheaded too. Nice day.

All 18 - Optimum Route - Splits

Forearm has been a little better last day or so, and I thought this was worth a try. No immediate pain, but I'll have to see how it develops. Last setback I had with the forearm was not immediate, but the next day after doing some pullups.

Rhonda's morning group, but at the relatively relaxed hour of 6:30 as nobody had anyplace special to go today. Thought we might get Peter, but he said he woke up at 6:20 and stayed quiet until we were safely out of the house. So just 5 this morning, but a spirited group. Planks were a little better today.

On the spinning bike, keeping PG company while he was on the treadmill.

With Rhonda's group, after a late night with the Land Trust. T'giving company also started to show up last night.

Stratton Brook 5K course. A bit overdressed. Hamstring complaining a fair amount, but otherwise a pretty good effort. Splits at the bridge: 4:23; 9:16; 15:00. A PR, and apparently a PR at each split. Excellent!

Rhonda's morning class, which was challenging after a late night. R hamstring in full inflammation mode this morning.
