Flying Pig Day 2, Carter Caves (Masters Champs Day 1). I had a lot of trouble with the cliffs. Couldn't match the map to the terrain, always in the wrong place with no easy way to get to the right place, work my way around to some other place, repeat.

Flying Pig Day 1, Middle distance, Brown B. Pretty happy with this run, it was slow going most of the way, but I took trail runs where I could, and that worked out well. One mistake going from 1 to 2, forgot there were 2 trails and lost a minute or more when the first one didn't look right. For a change I handled the transition to Sprint O on the last last 3 controls and didn't mess any of them up, even with Bill Pullman hard on my heels.

First in M65, but several guys went for Green today.

Cruise intervals: 3 x (1 mile at T pace + 2:00 jog). I did this around the neighborhood, and all of the 1-mile stretches had significant climbs. So it's pretty hard to go by time, but the effort was there. Also, I didn't have split times on my watch so I got them off the graph. 7:49, 7:49, and 7:41. The last one had the least climb.

Perimeter trail loop at Greenbelt Park. The trail was mostly dry, with a few wet or muddy patches. I think I counted 9 trees down across the trail, most of which could be hurdled, but there were a couple of real stoppers.

At Sligo track. Ladder at R pace: 3x(200+200 jog), 2x(400+400 jog), 1x(800+800 jog), 2x(400+400 jog), 3x(200 +200 jog). Times were 45-46 for 200s, 1:36-1:37 for 400s, and 2:233:23 for the 800. All right on target. The sun came out just as I left.

C • Nice workout...by our paces... 4
