Orienteering - race 37:00 [3] 4.1 mi (9:01 / mi)
Tarn howes middle race, brown.
I didn't do a test run on Friday as I was feeling sluggish, so it was not going to go well, so I decided I'd rather not know what running on my calf felt like. I had forgotten about it, but remembered unfortunately 100m into the jog to the start. Shit. It was pretty agony the whole way around, and I never got out of 4th gear. I yanked it badly coming down the hill to 7, and jogged v slowly for the next few. Passed RRR who was screaming in agony with every step. Oh dear!
I thought the course was enjoyable but straightforward. I only fluffed 12, and even then only by 30secs maybe.
I got to the finish, and things just ceased up completely. Hobbled back to the van, picked up 4 kids, hobbled back to the start, around the white, and back to the van again. No running around the white for me today.
Beaten by lots of old men and one young lady. I'm getting used to this though.
