Another 8 am start. Crisp and clear. Wore a tight Under Armour under my O shirt becasue the shirt I wore yesterday rubbed a nice sore under my arm. Thought I would be too warm, but I wasn't for a change. A beautiful day in the open woods. I ran as hard as I could. I was very happy with my effort.
Afterwards, worked the rest of the day with epunching - 109 epunched. What a hectic, enjoyable day. I had excellent help in the form of Andy Strat.

OMeet: Epunching/clean up/fixing typos, 10 hours

Drove to Great Falls, MD to hand off the electronic controls to Sam L for tomorrow's event. At 9 am, it was about 36 degrees with a little breeze - perfect for a run. Wore short sleeves and tights. Couldn't believe how over dressed others were...
Anyway, ran a mile than had to duck into the woods and rocks to skirt a closed portion of the C&O canal towpath. That mile is listed separately since it was so slow...
Legs felt heavy throughout. I did not get any blisters on my feet, yeah!! Walked 1 minute about every 5-6 minutes.
Miles were 1124 1011 1015 1021 1038 1012 1029 1043

Off path to skirt a closed portion of the towpath. Had to scramble over quite a few rocks.

OMeet: Map printing/Program controls, 1.5 hours

Wimped out on running the last two nights . Of course, those were balmy 60 degree evenings, perfect for running especially in February! Not wanting to skip another day, and with 30-35 mph gusty winds this evening, I am relegated to the treadmill. Something to whine about, yeah!!

Here is my track from the GPS - just kidding.

Omeet: Epunch prep, 2 hours

Wussed out despite the beautiful afternoon. Claiming that my knees were a bit sore from all the weekend activity.
