Orienteering race 43:59 [4] 4.1 km (10:44 / km) +98m 9:35 / km
shoes: Brooks Cascadia
Middle distance, good run, esp considering rain. Was a time when I would've quit mentally before I started in such conditions. Ever so wet standing around waiting for start. Complex terrain at salmon hatchery, couldn't afford to lose contact. 2nd M60, PG 41+, Jeff S 43+, 4th in 50-55-60. Event coincided with salmon run, men everywhere fishing, must have been some women, too...

Note
Drive to Syracuse w/ Beth & dogs. NIght at motel in Bennington ($70, too much), took dogs for walk just down the hill fm Robert Frost grave which I finally located after some 10 yrs or more of passing by & saying I'd do so someday (maybe 6 mos ago).

Trail/woods running 17:18 [3] 2.1 mi (8:14 / mi)
shoes: New Balance 992
Went to SPS at noon, cool, cooler in woods. Wanted 2 under 15' but after 45" had sharp pain, left thigh, so stopped, then started again slowly which was ok. Can't trust Monday, esp after long car trips/sitting & different exercise & touch of boat life debauchery. Recall similar last fall when I lost nearly a month due to muscle pull in similar situation, same place.
Trail/woods running 14:07 [4] 2.1 mi (6:43 / mi)
shoes: New Balance 992
So after jog & nothing seemingly amiss, stated out more sprightly & ran 2rd best of this sort (13:56, 14:11). In spite of Monday, legs felt up to task. Low-grade burning ant left thigh over the pm, or maybe largely hypochondriasis.

Road/trail 1:28:00 [2] 5.5 mi (16:00 / mi)
shoes: New Balance 1011
Ran over to Head Harbor & then Goat/Cliff & Duck Hbr trails, over Duck Hbr mt...granite, shale, sea & forest. Reminded me of Pacific Northwest, Olympic NP experience. A few challenging places on Duck Mt trail, wouldn't want to have to take grandma. Two days of nice weather.
