Miami Central Quad. Did more work around the new student center plus found quite a few other significant updates. Got to observe a young buck deer at very close range in Bishop Woods. This is the second time I've seen a deer in there and it still amazes me that they find this tiny woodlot in the middle of a busy campus.

College Corner with UC orienteering students.

We finished up with hot dogs, beans, and mac and cheese at Jamie's. Mostly walking but we jogged a couple sections.

8 PM
trail running 30:19 [3] 2.7 mi (11:14 / mi)
shoes: Starter Strike
A somewhat slow run at Miami Natural Areas. Fit slowed down a bit at the stepping stones crossing because of a large rootstock that had washed downstream and lodged in the "stones" (circular concrete pillars). But I figured out I could climb over the top of them and continue across. Then tripped on a stump and had a hard fall. Don't think I injured anything although one finger was really sore and tingly numb for quite a while. A couple other bruises but nothing major. Trails were still quite wet and went slip-sliding on a couple muddy spots, but only the one fall.

Event: SMOC Chilson
trail building / maintenance 6:00:00 [2] 7.0 mi (51:26 / mi)
Mostly light lopping on Buckeye Trail in my segment of Scioto Trail State Forest.
weights / strength 30:00 [3]
About 40 minutes of really intense chainsaw. A large tree had fallen across the trail and large trunks had snapped and twisted together like interlocking pick-up-sticks. Tricky work since every part was resting on two or three other parts with every cut potentially setting off a chain reaction of blade jamming and flying timbers.
