(rest day)
Drove back to Buffalo after spending the night in Ben's apartment in NYC. What a noisy neighborhood! Found a great parking place right on the corner of 6th Avenue and 4th Street. Unfortunately had to leave by 8 AM or risk the wrath of the street cleaning police. Dinner Sunday night at Le Figaro Cafe on the corner of Bleeker and Macdougal. Nice unpretentious untouristy place.

Orienteering race 1:07:56 [4] *** 6.35 km (10:42 / km) +220m 9:07 / km
spiked:11/14c shoes: Jalas O shoes
A little sore from the day before but didn't expect that to bother me once I got moving. Loved the open woods at the begining and then again later on. Slow going in some of the rocky parts and the mountain laurel parts but overall much faster pace than yesterday. A couple of minor bobbles but again no big mistakes. Managed to overcome deficit to Bob Bullions from day 1 and beat him by a couple of minutes.

Spring Rock Festival. Day 1 Green X course."Short". Weather was chilly but no rain. Since it was my first meet in a long time decided to play it safe and slow for the most part. Probably spent more time than necessary stopped and looking at the map but was afraid of taking chances and risking a big mistake. The plan worked and I was happy with my result even though it was slower than one might wish. No bad physical consequences and could still run at end.
Orienteering race 20:26 [4] *** 2.16 km (9:28 / km) +105m 7:37 / km
spiked:7/9c shoes: Jalas O shoes
Leg C of the sprint relay, run as the first leg. The hordes had pretty much scattered by the second control. Map scale of 1:5000 had me overrun one of the controls near the end (#8). Had to walk up the hills but that didn't surprise me. Followed Mark Dominie to #4 and then didn't see him again until #8 when he appeared behind me. Managed a decent sprint to the finish.

Again, no weights today in preparation for the weekend. Just as well since my right arm is still a little sore from something last week. Bad technique? Read a book instead. Got a couple of more pages along in "John Adams".
