Fri, Sat (10/4-5) no run, sail fm Rockland to Provincetown.

SPS, almost chilly, certainly at start. At one pt, was on XC loop - w/o prior expectation, it seems hard to get any kind of pace...just jog along.

Same as yest, opposite direction. More rain just before start, NW front. Heel still irritable. Getting up to 'speed' fm last wkend.

Noon, rain beforehand, no Diane. Rain stopped & began 36' later, vindicating D's conscience. Was on Clinton, car stops 50' away, lady calls out something, thought she said the word 'pain' - was I limping w/ my sl sore heel. No, she said would I like a ride because of the rain. I told her I was perfectly content but as she drove away I thought how strange, a stranger/woman making another stranger man such an offer.

Noon, bit of drizzle sent Diane scurrying. Slow, heel better, ran w/ O maps fm weekend.

After work w/ dogs, more for them, over to bog. Rt heel not interested in much of anything. Wearing O shoes was definitely the wrong choice.


Early on...

NAOC classic finals at Klondike SF, a bit disappointed, sloppy in places. Heel sore before start, thought about running bk to car to put higher lift under it but did not - it did not like the run so was less aggressive than I might have been. Chose to wear proper O shoes as trail shoes were sodden & heavy - O shoes proved to be less forgiving on heel. Saw alot of Tim P & fair am't of Walter S early, prob more distraction than help. One control missed w/o good solution & lucked upon control. Another a straight 150 to a knoll in good vis & was 50m off. 2nd M60, 9th I recall among 50-55-60, Gagarin 64+ & Glen 67+, would have been pleased w/ 68-71'. Tour de force performance by CNYO.

Well-attended meet, parking at Hidden Acres...




...another run in the forest without me...
