orienteering race 58:44 [3]
Brown course at Batsto. It's fun to run at Batsto - reasonably flat and easy on the joints. The ground is soft and there are no rocks and I actually pushed and ran a good bit of the course. Made some silly mistakes to #1 and #3 (they were just on trails for goodness sakes and I made them way harder than they needed to be) and was sloppy out of 5 drifting way to the right thinking I was up and over the spur when in fact I was just running down the reentrant like I definitely didn't want to do. Anyway, the blueberry doesn't bother me - it's not thorny or anything so you can push through it - but I heard people grumbling about it. And the sandy soil makes it so easy on the joints so that running doesn't hurt. Was able to push it in spurts - just no endurance. But working on that. A good way to end the DVOA season but planning to head to QOC next weekend.
