Land Trust volunteering in the morning. We reopened Champlin Glacier Preserve for the first time since the spring, as it was closed all summer for a forestry initiative. Many of the trails I don't even recognize anymore after all the clearing.
In the afternoon, I ran Barn Island trails in the rain with Matthew and a friend of his.
Wednesday: 5
Very windy Veterans' Day. Decided to stay off roads and ran in the Westerly Town Forest instead.
Thursday: 5
Dover, MA. Another day on the trails. Ran/explored Noanet Woodlands.
Friday: 4
Thetford, VT. Ran the NE XC Championship course with Matthew. We ran at an easy pace, and I was still feeling it with all the undulating hills. In the back half of the course, a 200' winding climb called "Morty's Monster" awaited us.
Saturday: 7
West Lebanon, NH. Headed out early from the hotel before going to Matthew's meet. I had mapped out a loop and a segment to go after. 1.2 mile "Down Mt. Support" segment. 64 people on the segment; I would need to run sub-6, but given a loss of 123 feet in elevation, that shouldn't be too taxing. (It wasn't)
Stepped outside to find it snowing. Not hard, and not sticking, but snow none the less. Glad I had brought a hat and gloves. Fun and scenic run.
Sunday: 8
Back in Rhody for the 24th annual Li'l Rhody Runaround. Write-up to follow shortly.
Weekly tally: Mileage a little low at 36. Want to keep a base of ~40 throughout the winter before ramping up for whatever I undertake in the spring.

Doesn't look like Champlin anymore |
It's raining leaves |
