Speedy Goat Sprint Relay - Leg 2
Tarrywile Park, CT
I ran in a team with Marie, and she handed over to me around 7th place, just behind a spread-out pack of PG, Ethan, Sergei Gnatiouk, and Katia. I ran very hard from the start to get closer to Sergei and then took the trail up to the butterfly control, getting by Ethan. Had some hesitations on the first loop, where Jordan went flying by, but ran well after that and handed over in 3rd, behind Jordan and Vadim, and just ahead of Sam.

Speedy Goat Relay - Leg 4
Marie had another solid run, and I went out just behind another pack. This one contained Sergei, Ethan, and Sam, with Vadim over a minute ahead in 2nd, and Jordan another minute in front with the lead. I chose to cut through the green going to 2, and gained some time on Sergei and Sam, getting ahead of them. Then climbed slowly up to my next control and passed Ethan along the way. After contouring along to #4, I was surprised to see Vadim come in from the opposite direction. I had slight bobbles on 5 and 6, but then ran well to get in front of the pack, with only Ethan right on my back. I took a safer route to the last control, #9, and Ethan got a couple of steps in front. I pushed hard on the long uphill run-in and managed to get ahead of him for 2nd place, far behind the impressive team of Jordan and Giacomo.
This was really fun! Thanks to everyone who helped organize!

Had to go by Becky's place to drop off some Harriman maps, so I took that opportunity to run her sprint course on the Yale map in reverse. Feeling tired, so I only ran until the control that was conveniently place on my house.
Weighed in at 174 lbs this morning - about 15 less than in November.
