Running 45:00 [3]
Road run to the north end of Palgrave to avoid the logging next door, then a trail run in the conservation area. I made sure BulletDog had a couple of swims in the ponds, and now she is all fluffy, damp, and snoring happily beside me.
The signs have gone up to close the north half of the red trail (and surrounding areas) for logging for the next 2-3 months. Nothing was happening today yet. Good thing, because I ran through that whole area first, then found the sign at the far end.
Strength & Mobility (Core) 40:00 [2]
Hard Core Monday, rescheduled to Tuesday because of last night's post-rogaine debriefing session at Wadd Squad HQ. 'Bent gets to skip this week's Hard Core because of his back problem. He was standing up a lot straighter this morning, and I hope he'll be able to attend next week's Hard Core Monday. It's not as much fun by yourself!
Back to the rogaine session... About a dozen people came and shared their routes, stories and lessons learned from the North Am Rogaine Champs. Lots of fun to see the different approaches. Nev-Monster's Mom's team built a tent out of tarps and slept in the woods for much of the night. Others returned to the Hash House for a pasta dinner, a good sleep, and bacon and eggs in the morning before heading out again. Another team kept going all night and scored one third of their points in the 8 hours of darkness. My partner, Backwoods Girl/Neeno, helped us to have what was probably the lowest amount of elevation gain per point collected. The coed adventure racing team who had the best result from our club did virtually all their navigation in straight lines, just following a bearing between controls. They had the highest number of points per kilometer, but probably set the record for elevation gain.
