Event: DVOA Training Weekend - Hickory Run
 

National Press Club 5K - top three finishers on team score, unless rules have changed since last year. Though assembling a team might be hard at this late date. Also, Lake Accotink NOD event.

Or DVOA training weekend including US Team training. If there's space in the US team training - apparently the DVOA training weekend is full but I haven't got a reply yet as to whether that means both are. Sounds like I may have to camp.

Cycling to work in rather a hurry since I needed to arrive in time to participate in a telcon.

Just received my copy of Neal Stephenson's new book plus a few others from Amazon. Yay!!!! Even though I don't know when I'll find time to read it.

Skated to work, carrying some shoes and other miscellaneous things I'll need over the weekend at Hickory Run.

Cycling home by way of PCRM.

Cycling to work.

To anyone else out there who takes UK size 12 in O shoes, Letro Sport AB is selling their remaining Jalas Black FLX 2005s and Silva K-100s for 200 SEK a pair (about 30 US/CA$). Worth it even if the Silva's still have the durability problem they did when I last used them back in 2005, though I restricted my order to the Jalas shoes for that reason.

Also, flying to NAOCs doesn't appear to be remotely economical compared to driving. Maybe I should look for a carpool there and back but rent a car in Syracuse during the event so as not to be an n+1th wheel in someone's weekend.

Ran home through Rock Creek Park. Didn't bring a light so, given that sunset was set for 7:24, without significant detours along the way to add distance. My inner thighs, apparently still not quite recovered from Sunday, say it was long enough anyway.

Cycling to work the to Dave and Heidi's en route to the QOC BOD meeting then home from there afterwards, Jan Merka having given me a lift back from Potomac.

Cycling to work. Home via the aquatic center.

Not quite half various strokes then flutterkicking to loosen up my legs.
