Susquehanna Stumble XIV, Short course, with SVO. Absolutely gorgeous day at Pine Grove Furnace State Park, with a great group of folks. Good pace for me (10.4 min/km), with mass start and following allowed. Course Pack broke up before second control window. One parallel error on way up from E-F, looks like drifted left on way up the hill from trail--cost me ~5 mins, due to relocate and climb again. Slowed down a bit after that, too. Lots of fun, and next year I'll run Long course!

Bikram. Nice finish to 2011! Best stretch I've had in quite a while - felt pretty good throughout, but highlights were camel (min 76) and all compression moves. Actually had some minor cramps in feet and stomach muscles--must not have hydrated enough today! Relatively cool and humid, Tmax 40º C.

XC ski touring at Wolf Creek ski area, Colorado, by Alberta Park Reservoir, rolling terrain in and out of woods. Wonderful to get out on some really nice snow, at a beautiful location on the Continental Divide, 3,200 m elevation. Definitely felt the altitude on the long uphills. Very quiet, with only one other XC skier out on the trails I was skiing. Uploaded MemBelt, since T6 doesn't want to reload event, including laps and elevation, after accidental delete. D'oh!

Urban orienteering, Score-O, at University of MD, my first! One hour limit, made 20 of 30 available controls. Sunny and warm, before afternoon showers. Lots of fun, and nice to be able to maintain relatively steady pace between controls.
