Saw Neil Young at Tanglewood with Exene Cervenka opening.  Met my Sister and Cool Cat there.

My sister gave us "Louie", a cockatiel, for us to look after.

Day Two of our Savoy Mountain State Forest camping trip, some fishing at Plainfield Pond ended lucrative as we totaled 17 large perch and a big bullhead.  We ended up taking the fish to my folks and having a "fish-fry" which was attended by Tata, who polished off four perch.

Next up on the New England Trail Running circuit is Soapstone Mountain Half-Marathon.  I felt fairly good throughout the race, and finished well in 2:14:57.  It began to feel as though I could do this trail-running.

Vernon Rabbit Run 5-mile road run in 33:03.

New England Trail Running began for me at the 7 Sisters 12-mile trail race on the Holyoke Range.  Weather called for possible snow and ice just prior to the race, but other than it being cloudy and wet, no big problem.

This run totally wiped me out, but I finsished my first New England Trail Race in 3:03:06.

Ran the New England 20km Championship event in Pittsfield, Massachusetts today, completing the run in 1:31:23.
