Walking 30:51 [2] 2.85 km (10:50 / km) +2m 10:47 / km
shoes: Sauc TriumphISO-silver/gr/blue
Around the neighborhood on sidewalks and roads, most of which have street lamps. Temp about 67, so it felt pretty nice compared to earlier today.
Only saw one neighbor out walking (I guess the dog walkers go out earlier, perhaps while we're having dinner) and one fellow sitting outside his house. He smokes cigars, but not in the house; though I didn't smell any as I passed by.

Hiking 1:51:00 [2] 2.73 mi (40:39 / mi) +78m 37:20 / mi
Hawk Mountain Sanctuary near Kempton, PA (NOT the scout reservation that's embargoed...). First visit; I'd seen pics on Facebook (PA NRDC) showing large groups of raptors in recent days. We did see up to seven broad-winged hawks (I think, from conversation overheard) in a cluster high overhead; many vultures; and three(!) bald eagles, from the North Overlook. Once you get past Bald Lookout the trail was rough/rocky, in places difficult for my knees. If/when we go back I'll take hiking poles (at least one).
Time doesn't include the ~hour we sat on rocks with the other birdwatchers (which shows on the track).

Walk/Jog 56:10 * 5.36 km (10:29 / km) +104m 9:33 / km
ahr:129 max:147 shoes: 2015 Altra LP2.0-9 lime
At Trexler Nature Preserve in north-central Lehigh Co. (Schnecksville, to be precise). Warm late-summer day; probably close to 80 when we started, 85 by the time we left.
Went on some trails I hadn't been on before, and discovered some places where previously-mapped bike trails no longer existed. Finished up along the creek, including cool down walk to the car from where I last turned around. I carried the park's trail map (showing the color of the trail markers) and a screenshot of the terrain/bike trails map from the Lehigh County Trails Finder page which has many, many trails/bike trails marked (some no longer used/accessible).
Afterwards, we took off our shoes and waded (and sat) in the Jordan Creek. Not an ice bath; very comfortable. :-)

Skipped yoga this morning because my left knee is still bruised from my fall on Saturday, so went for a walk in the neighborhood instead.

ahr:135 max:167 spiked:11/12c shoes: 2017 Inov8 ArcticClaw 300
Brown X on Letchworth West. 4.1 km / 140m climb advertised. These were much more reasonable courses than yesterday's; set by Kathy Bannister.
First 4 controls were on technical steep hillside, followed by flatter terrain with more trail options. So many, in fact, that I probably lost time on route choices to 6 and 7. Slightly off to 10; it was mapped up the hill from the stream so that's where I was headed until I saw it closer to the stream.
Second F60 for the weekend behind Janet F.
