Running 1:07:42 [3] 6.07 km (11:10 / km) +259m 9:12 / km
After 4 very stressful days with some Deadlines I had neglected up to that Point, but also some successes :-), we drove up to Arosa, and I went on a smaller exploratory run around Arosa where I have never been before. As I didn't have a map, I opted for a hilltop that looked so tempting with the last rays of sunshine. From there, I wanted to go down cross-country through steep Woods to a trail I knew must be somewhere below. It was VERY steep, and seeing from all the flags marking off marshes and a big golf cource and houses, I knew I must have been in the area of the World Cup race for Saturday (?). Well, I just wanted down, trespassed the edges of the golf course and then some houses until I finally hit the road again. But this was slow going.
I had a nice flow going up along trails and paths but the steep downhill through the Woods was slow for me. I could do it which is good to know for my first orienteering race on Saturday across the valley.
Still very happy to have been out in beautiful landscape, in the sunset. I got cold though towards the end.
