Event: US Champs
 

Green Sprint at US Champs. Not very settled down, and lots of booms and bad map reading. Just got a bit panicky under the pressure of a sprint. Parallel error on #2, dumb route choice on trivial leg 5, bad route to 7 because of misreading the hill, poor map reading at #9. Just a mess. Nice day, though, and certainly a fine course.

Sprint Green - Splits

Tunxis trail loop, with Hazel. Beautiful day, but legs sore, and very tired. Cumulative effect of jet lag and red sox games leaving me pretty flat. Glad the series is over. I couldn't take much more.

C • Series 3

abs section of Rhonda's morning cardio circuit group.

and the rowing section of the morning group. I need to charge up the battery on the rowing machine, because apparently nobody is rowing enough to keep it lively. So no screen output. Betsy was staring at it for a while and thinking it was because she didn't have her glasses, so she was pretty gratified to find out that it just wasn't working.

Ray Smith trail at Mary Conklin preserve. I had planned on three loops, but it was getting cold and dark by the time I got there, so just did one. Dark enough that I couldn't see the time until I got back in the car. Seems to me I used to do these loops in the low 13s. Slow today, and achy in my right hip, and then it was cold and the leaves made it hard to see the trail, so a few stops and hesitations.

McLean loop with Rhonda and Kathleen. Spunkier than usual, while Rhonda was feeling a bit sluggish, so I was able to stay up with them.

Art Sweeton loop with Danielle and Hazel, including a side trip to look at the chestnut meadow. A bit drizzly, but otherwise fine.
