Slough Creek. I did the intermediate course. The first three controls were very easy--then we got into the forest. Some of the trails were very difficult to see, which kind of messed me up a bit on 5. I lost a bit less than 2 minutes. The big mistake was on 10--I stopped much too soon looking all over for it. Finally went on to find it (13;58 lost) although I never did see the rock wall. The last slog uphill was really hard when tired. I had to stop three times to catch my breath. Lots of fun to get out in the woods.

Burpee Friday. We did lots of Burpees.

Still really sore in the shoulders, but better than yesterday. Maybe the Aleve? Good balanced workout today, and I was glad that it was not too hard.

Lots of balance stuff with the cable machines. Pushups and pullups on a new machine. I did well on the reflex testing with lights. pushed and pulled the sled to finish.

Felt hard after not doing this for almost two weeks.

Last class in the old place. Next week we go to the new one. A new HIIT move tonight, and it was full body and tough.

A travel day. Yesterday, after First Water, we drove through rain and snow, all the way to Amarillo. Looking forward to getting home, collecting my pets, and lots of laundry.

Orange course at First Water. Wet and sloppy from yesterday's record rainfall. Didn't do well, but my contour reading has really improved with these desert courses. Lots of glitches at the start--couldn't get the program to run, so I was pin punching. Beautiful area, and good weather today.
