fair hill stumble

probably more like a 1.5. Started out as a 2/2.5, but quickly took it easy.

Stumble is ALL DONE :). Short 7560m, long 15850m, (shortest route as calculated by the computer). What a pleasure working with this map and terrain. I've often whined about Zherdev's veg mapping, but this seemed perfect with one exception (which may have simply been natural change). Coursesetter's notes will be short, which is always a good thing.

The veg mapping is so good that it can be used in both micro and macro decisions, and while no controls are in unpleasant veg, those who don't respect it in their routes may be ...

It was pleasant to be in the forest for 5 hours at slow speed. All sorts of wildlife -- not megafauna, but the sort that lives in small streams and mud puddles. Pretty cool stuff if you enjoy the sounds, sights, and smells of a forest ...

Now it is on to HR ...

joy loop 2

ribs were killing me. Almost stopped after 5 minutes but toughed it out, and eventually the endorphins kicked in. It was tough out there today. For some reason, everyone else was in an extra cheery mood saying "good morning" and the like; all I could muster was a feeble wave ...

Finished design of the farsta for the saturday of the sprint series. Seems like a nice little course, tho the constraint of trying to keep it on the shortish side lead to some compromises. Wanted to do 3 loops but 2 works better for trying to keep it under 9k. It occurs to me that there is no reason people can't do it in teams of 2 if they want an even shorter run, providing they can manage the handoff of the e-card. The question is -- will be this be a registration nightmare, or can it be handled on the fly at the race site?

Anyway, off to the terrain on saturday -- hopefully it is as I remember it. It is amazing that this map is 20 years old or so now, and still basically accurate, at least the last time I set there ...
