Event: MoboGoGlobo! 2009
 

Cycling parts of getting to and from Rosaryville and home from the NGA.

Picking up the three least convenient controls from the training course. Fortunately, Pat Zerfas, Mihai, Corinne and Patti Mace got the rest of them for me or I wouldn't have made it to a film downtown at 4:30pm. Did my part of Mogogoglobo on the way to the Metro station from the park.

Cycling parts of getting around a day of terrain scouting, control hanging and map printing.

Walking parts of terrain scouting and control hanging. Perhaps I oughtn't to discount all this by half but justifying treating this day differently would be too much ethical wrestling.

It's a great time of year to use Rosaryville - the mapped light and even medium green has good visibility and the latter isn't, in general, inevitably painful or even all that much of a fight to get through.

Work commute, uphill direction. Followed, of course, by the downhill return journey late in the evening after doing some post-work OCAD drafting.

Skating to work.

Still out-training Hillary by 26 seconds. Won't last much longer unless she's taking a rest for the rest of the day.

Cycling home by way of PCRM.

Cycling to work.

Run home through Rock Creek Park. Dark enough to need light the last 40 minutes.

Cycling to work. Home by way of the aquatic center.

Flutterkicking while waiting for the mass of swimmers to reach the end of their endurance and vacate a lane in the deeper part of the pool.

Remainder of the pool time after the swimmers thinned out.

Cycling to work by way of Deal Middle School in upper northwest DC, where I returned a student's wallet that I found on 16th St late last week. Home by way of the aquatic center.

Hungarian lesson 11 and most of the second CD of The Rest is Noise.
