9 mile. Around the pond loop. Return run via the beach at low tide was awesome!
Saturday:
7 miles. NSEF 5K. North Stonington, CT. 18:10. 2nd place of 127. Full results here.
This course is almost all hills. After about 1/2 mile and the first hill climb, I had moved into 3rd place. The first guy was so far out in front I never saw him again, but the guy in 2nd was in my sights. At the turnaround on this out-and-back course, I had caught up to about 10 yards behind him. I quickly reeled him and passed him on a long hill climb. From there I picked up the pace and held it to the finish line. Splits: 5:56, 6:06, 5:39. The pace is erratic, because the hills are. Happy with my time. For a cool-down, Crutch led me on some neat trails, including Bicentennial Trail and Tipping Rock.
20 miles. Ride to and from NSEF.
Sunday:
35 mile group ride put on by Mike B, from Westerly to Mystic. Chris and his friend Mike Vance joined us for the fun and coffee stop in the borough. Pysched that fun runs start up there in 1.5 weeks.

| Single-track on the Warner Trail within F Gilbert Hills State Forest |

| Dam at Crocker Pond |

| On my way to Wrentham State Forest, decided this was just too much water and chance of falling in the drink before starting my work day. Turned around here; will have to come back on a drier day. |

| Not sure this picture does the terrain justice, but this is screaming downhill with loose rock |

| I have some history here, dating back to when it was a 4-miler, but today was not to be a day for the Jeffs. |
