Middle distance at Paso Nogal park, which is pretty tiny, so three maps and lots of short legs. Fun stuff though, lots of contour navigation and bushes on hillsides. All the non-skiing muscles in my ankles were pretty dead by the end from all the sidehilling.

Night sprint at Diablo Valley College down in SF. Lots of buildings and passageways and stairways, pretty fun. Mostly just running on autopilot, not really planning ahead at all. Took the map out of the map case after a couple legs, which helped a lot with the headlamp glare, but I still couldn't read much on the run. But the legs were simple enough I could usually stop at each control and memorize the whole next leg, so it didn't matter too much.
Partly relevant tangent: has anybody from summer-o sprinty mapmaking actually tried using center dots in the control circles? Do they not work in the summer for some reason? or is it just that no one knows they exist? Because I think they'd be pretty great on urban sprint maps.
No real navigation troubles, smooth all the way through, and I started second and passed the first guy early on, so I had the course to myself the whole time. Saw many cats, or their eyes at least.

road bike 1:05:17 [3] 17.4 mi (16.0 mph) +332m
The car broke a couple days ago (mices eating more delicious wires - which apparently are actually made with peanut oil), but we have a new VW shop here in town, so I sent the car there instead of all the way to Reno. They called up today and said it was all fixed up, so I rode down to pick it up, but while they were bringing it around the engine light came back on, so I got to ride back home, which is less downhill than the way there.

Wandering around the neighborhood. It started raining literally the second I walked out of the garage, so it was somewhat cold.

drove down to donner lake to play with the new bike, just cause I don't really trust it on big hills yet. also big hills make me tired.
