Road/trail 25:35 intensity: (12:00 @1) + (5:00 @3) + (8:35 @4) 2.14 mi (11:57 / mi) +10m 11:47 / mi

Went to BHS with track in mind but fields were awash with kids: boys-girls track meet, lacrosse, baseball & tennis. Found the only quiet field (baseball had just finished) & did 20' of on-off-get-HR-up striding. Bow vs Holderness in the field below for some distraction.

Orienteering 57:09 [3] 6.73 km (8:30 / km) +82m 8:00 / km

UNO College Woods 5.6k green, Ernst as meet driector. Had not been there in years. Nice woods & map. Splendid day weather-wise. Spring green everywhere between Concord & Durham. Good run & energy, tho fell twice. Spent from 8 onward looking at a bloody compass, worth 20". Lost maybe 20" at 9, 40" at 12. No results posted, Jim 56ish, Alar 54ish.

M,C,R. Trails & walls but still some nice terrain to heed in between.

UNO meeting of vintage members after re the USOC meet at Bear Brook in October.

Road/trail 10:09 intensity: (1:00 @1) + (4:09 @2) + (5:00 @3) 1.0 mi (10:06 / mi) +17m 9:36 / mi

Decided on a 'mandatory' mile warmup.

Track 40:00 intensity: (10:00 @1) + (10:00 @2) + (20:00 @3) 3.0 mi (13:20 / mi)

BHS track around 6p - good time of day, cool, light breeze. Had no watch of any kind. Forgot gps & had removed basic watch to wear gps yesterday. Became an exercise in "applied lassitude". More energy predicted tomorrow for UNO meet at College Woods.

Road/trail 48:24 intensity: (15:00 @1) + (33:24 @2) 3.36 mi (14:24 / mi) +68m 13:33 / mi
shoes: Nike Lunarglide 3

Bog Jog with Z&M. Perfect day, cool, mostly in shade. Bog Meadow is completely drained after tree damaged the dam & it was not repaired. What happened to the beavers? Two lodges, no activity. Surprised to see how shallow it was - had been concerned in past re falling thru ice. Looked over eastern portion of adopted trail, starting at small pond with 2 islets. Nothing amiss but leaves need 'sweeping'.

5 PM

Road running 29:25 intensity: (10:00 @2) + (19:25 @3) 3.05 mi (9:39 / mi) +68m 9:01 / mi
shoes: Nike Lunarglide 3

Drove to Sandwich Center with Beth so she could deliver several dresses to the League shop there. Took the road from Ashland (Rt 103) which was as good as NH gets. Center Sandwich is very lovely - was there two winters ago for a SS race. Ran 3 mi on Squam Lake Rd., Carns to Cotton Cove - Beth passed me around 2.5 mi & appeared when gps said she would.

Track 35:00 intensity: (20:00 @2) + (15:00 @3) 3.0 mi (11:40 / mi)
shoes: Nike Lunarglide 3

Noon at CHS track - a hot, black track under strong sun but a good split of working day. Have missed going out at noon due to job change. Ran a mile in relative heat & retreated to grass & shade. No watch of any kind all day - disorienting.

3 PM

Trail/woods running 1:21:08 intensity: (1:01:08 @1) + (20:00 @2) 4.57 mi (17:45 / mi) +176m 15:51 / mi

Walker TF perusal, in part looking for Hilary's trail which I stumbled upon, took to Van Geer & may have hit it just before returning to the thru road. Generally nice woods, complex terrain, no paths to speak of. Tired & chronically sore rt first MT at work. Great day-way to begin May. Took a few photos for BOS archives.
7 PM

Note

Sunday, middle, #5. Done mostly for the fun of it & to see how to get track in small section of map. Learned more than I thought I would, ie, did not descend & climb back up thru CP cliff but around to S of it, between cliffs as mapped. And, twice, was looking at area between cliff to L & one just to L & above that one (second time as in looking for extremely tucked away flag - thinking Anna Shafer-Skelton might know something I didn't). GPS track seems pretty accurate.

Note

Last of April!

where did it go? Ides of March, Easter Sunday, Boston marathon, BG, WP past, even a full moon past! May has always been the favorite month so 31 days to look forward to.

Saturday middle, saw #7 as a rock face between two spurs (missing the bigger picture) until that failed to produce results.

Mysteriously acquired chest wall pain (pectoral) from weekend: no falls, nothing I can recall - hurts to cough or laugh.
5 PM

Road/trail 21:12 [2] 2.21 mi (9:36 / mi) +23m 9:17 / mi

2 loops around 5:15p - tired legs revealed. Dogs on first loop, then contentedly tied to car while I did second. Balmy eve.
