Orienteering race 1:10:00 [3] 4.0 mi (17:30 / mi) +265m 14:31 / mi

Basically the time from start to finish after this happened:

Today's orienteering reminded me of the set of scenes from Caddyshack where the Minister is playing the best round of golf of his life, only to get hit by Lightning when he misses that final putt in a driving deluge.

My parallel is that it was the last local event of the season and I felt that I was actually navigating very well and my body felt great. A little bit of the same tightness in my left lower inner calf that I had a couple weeks ago at Hay Creek. I hopped across a creek about 2/3 of the way through the course and felt what resembled a rubber band snapping in that tight part of my calf. Moderate pain, and I got a couple more controls before bailing to the road and helping some scouts (who were way outside the yellow zone) back to where they should be (I took them to the road and showed them a few times where they were so that that they could re-orient themselves).

I can walk with moderate pain, so it is not an achilles thing. Looks like I will be re-familiarizing myself with the staff at VSAS, the folks who repaired my shoulder, first thing tomorrow. Thank goodness for laptop computers and the ability to work from home.

Yet more Caddyshack feedback - I was in 3rd place when it happened!

See you next year!
