Running (dirt) long (and hills) 1:22:54 [3] 5.95 mi (13:56 / mi) +67m 13:28 / mi
shoes: Trail NB 706 9D # 1
At Hand Hollow Cons. Area in West Lebanon, after the school vote (mid afternoon; temp in the mid 60s). Started at Gale Hill Rd parking area, down to main parking area near pond with herons, then up forest road beyond the Rickey place to upper pond. Down Cons. Area trail, back by heron pond, and back up with side loop through field (no bears today either).
AOWN: Two herons in the "rookery," plus one tick which I removed easily with my fingers (it hadn't been on long), turning it counter-clockwise to unscrew its little nozzle. Knee-high grass in places on the main trails--not enough users.
Walking warm up/down 5:15 [0] 0.16 mi (32:53 / mi)
Cooled down walking down the trail, looking for the flowers I thought I saw earlier when I first started my run, but I never found them. Drove by the pond and took pics of the herons instead... (may post one later)
