Sat 10/10 - AM 125 minutes

Back to the sticks for one last hurrah on the billygoat route in Northfield/Winchester before the flakes fly. Started with the climb up and across the ridge to the E Nfld reservoir, then over to Burt Hill and Schofield Mtn. before the final obligatory ascent to the TV tower. This loop or one very similar to it took me longer back in August, although the cooler temps today have a lot to do with that. No need to cool off in the Ashuelot today. In fact the breaks were kept to a bare minimum. Leg has been worse, still not able to run downill worth a damn. The final descent off Schofield Mtn. was particularly awkward, quads pretty much pulverized by that point.
