Running in terrain 45:17 [3] 6.88 km (6:35 / km)

Lane-Horse-Seaver loop, successfully this time. Wore Valerie's GPS on my head, and it grabbed more points this time, 69 or so in 45 minutes. Beeped at me five times, though I don't know what that means. It's clear from the track that there are some areas where it's not working very well, because there are huge gaps beween points (the whole stretch back from Seaver through Hickory Hills in particular), and there are some sections (like the trail past the esker) that I can't discern at all. Maybe a newer/fancier one would work better in an area like this. As it is, I can't imagine how somebody would be able to use something like this for mapping.

I rarely encounter anyone when running in my own private town forest, so I was mildly suprised when I saw someone coming toward me on the trail that goes toward Holman Street. Turned out to be Dan Cronin, and about 100 meters behind him was an older guy driving a mountain golf cart. Looks like they must have been clearing trails (on Sandra Lane's property?), because when I got to the tree across the trail where I turn off into the woods, it was all sawed up.
