Jog/walk to start.

Sunday Middle - Green - Splits

Flying Pig Long Course at East Fork SP. Nice course with some brutally steep climbs (with the option to avoid them by going way around). Lost 3 minutes on #5 by not checking the compass enough while crossing a reentrant system. Crossed an extra reentrant and had a much longer trail run than I should have. Stopped short on #6 due to a map misread and drifted off on #7. Overall could've been about 5 minutes faster. Ended up 2nd overall to Charlie S by 26 seconds. Had an early start (2 minutes ahead of Charlie) so the weather was good for running. Saw Charlie a couple of times during the run but he never caught me. Straightline distance was 7.0km.

Saturday Long - Green - Splits

Event: Flying Pig XIV - U S Interscholastic Championship
 

A tour around the model area on the South side. Checking out the vegetation and wetness underfoot.

Flying Pig, Middle Distance on Turkey Ridge (South side of East Fork SP). OK run. Lost 2 minutes on #4, a 100m leg - got off bearing due to low visibility in green stuff. Some other small time losses. 6th in M55 and 6th overall on Green (pretty competitive M55 group!) 3:40 behind first (Bill Pullman). Quite a bit of multiflora rose resulting in lots of leg scratches. Weather a bit on the warm side (60's) and sunny. Straightline distance 3.5km.

Friday Middle 8-Green - Splits

Around the "south block". 60's, overcast, started to sprinkle as I was cooling down.
