Orcas Island

Camp Moran was a buzz with excitement
We set off around Mount Picket,
Up the Powerlines,
'round the Lake,
up Constitution,
Over the hills,
down the quad burning switchbacks,
and...
looped the longest mile back to camp

I aimed for 5:30, 18 minutes quicker than last year, and managed 5:18. It was hard, but I feel like I left it all out there. I'm quite happy with my race and I plan to write a longer report when I feel like sitting for longer.

Happily going for breakfast at the Tomohawk and doing nothing else at all.

  4. Tom you are fast. Nice to see all the training pay off. You must be ecstatic finding that higher gear. Congrats. Also, I didn't think I could post because I don't have a blog, so that's cool too.
