Nolde Run for the Ages trail race. Starts are handicapped by gender and age, so the M65-69s get to start 17 minutes ahead of the 20-29 men (and 18 minutes behind the one 75+ woman who ran the race). Nicer weather than last year, low humidity and upper 60s at the start, climbing into the low 70s. Sunny but most of the race is in the woods so plenty of shade.
My race went pretty well - I finished 17th of 187 overall, 2nd M65-69 (maybe 3rd, but I think they gave 1st M65 to an M60 guy - have to check the results.). And my time was about 2:30 faster than last year on the same course. Edit: Results show me 2nd M65-69, 59 seconds behind 1st, 41 seconds ahead of 3rd - pretty tight race.
Encountered a long-time MIA orienteer also running the race, Mike Ball, who’s focus is now on doing a Marathon in every state (he’s up to 47).
