12 PM

O - competition race (Pawtuckaway) 1:24:14 [4] **** 6.54 km (12:53 / km) +117m 11:49 / km
ahr:131 max:163

Green, north section. Ran pretty well, cat and mouse with Phil, getting a little ahead until I over-ran 12 and he let me kept going for an extra hundred meters or so before asking if I had punched. Had missed it just to the R. Serious retracing my steps and a little searching cost me 5 min.
3 PM

O - competition race (Sprint relay) 26:36 [4] **** 2.22 km (11:59 / km) +72m 10:18 / km
ahr:139 max:160

Fun race with Glen and Janet, and Phil, each of us doing just one leg. A little 3 min struggle with #3 (38) as the reentrant is off relative to the megaboulder nearby.
4 PM

O-course Training 45:17 [1] ** 1.26 mi (35:56 / mi) +39m 32:47 / mi
ahr:134 max:171

Picked up a dozen of the relay controls. Felt pretty tired by the time I finished this.
8 PM

O - competition race (Night O) 1:53:02 [3] ***** 7.6 km (14:52 / km) +151m 13:32 / km

Tricky as always, but navigation went well as I was going at an easy pace. Started on the trail N and around to 1, until I thought about it and realized running that windy trail was going to be a real pain. So cut back into the woods and followed the hoard of lights a 100 m ahead. No mistakes and gradually caught up with several people who were making mistakes. Bailed at 6 and cut over to 10. Didn't want to totally beat myself up on this one. Finished running with Phil which was enjoyable, although we were both staggering with funky hamstrings.

Trail Running (Grafton) 1:17:11 [3] 4.94 mi (15:37 / mi) +351m 12:48 / mi
ahr:116 max:140

Another new route around backside of Bear Hill. Just a beautiful day for running.

Roller skiing (Grafton) 1:09:03 [3] 9.48 mi (7:17 / mi) +207m 6:49 / mi
ahr:123 max:150

Poling this time V1 to the R, no go to the L nor V2. Lots of no pole, too, but not as much as last time. Can't lift the R arm forward, which does not bode well for skiing. Decision time this month; would allow time for recovery if sewing up is needed.
1 PM

Trail Running long (Grafton Ponds) 2:14:20 [2] 6.72 mi (19:59 / mi) +435m 16:39 / mi
ahr:110 max:135 weight:157lbs

GPS'd another trail to the summit of Bear Hill. This comes up the back side after a wide circuit on jeep trails. Fresh and crisp bear paw print in the mud, the size of my outstretched hand. Much moose droppings up on top.

Road Running (Chester) 57:00 [4] 6.0 mi (9:30 / mi)
ahr:150 max:157 weight:158lbs

Decent run down thru town now that the humidity has dropped a little. Garmin crapped out so time is a close guess based on the 5 mile point.

Hiking (Grafton Ponds) 1:00:00 [1] 4.3 mi (13:57 / mi)

Same as yesterday, but with Ruthie and Casey. Stopped a lot on the way up for Casey to rest and to soak in every stream and mudhole. Coming down was much quicker. Good hike, but no wild animals today.

Trail Running (Grafton Ponds) 1:14:43 [3] 4.33 mi (17:16 / mi) +318m 14:04 / mi
ahr:117 max:140 weight:159lbs

Ski area up to Kidder Hill Rd and then up to Bear Hill trail. Followed to summit and back down backside, hooking up with VAST trail and Blue trail back to ski area. Nice run with lots of climb and excellent trail conditions.

Heading up the Bear Hill trail flushed two animals as I crossed an old clear cut and watched them scramble up a nearby tree. Then a stalemate as we both froze and watched each other. First I thought they were bear cubs, as I saw a full grown bear nearby last week, and these were kind of pudgy with ears sticking up above a solid brown face. Then I noticed they were a bit longish. And finally saw a long tail! These guys were fishers, the bane of porcupines, and since porcupines have fallen to them, predators of house cats around the towns. Not uncommon around here, but the first I've seen, and a pair at that.
