Orienteering race 1:08:45 [4] 7.4 km (9:17 / km) +360m 7:28 / km
Day 2 of US Champs.
Horrible, horrible run for me! Don't even remember when was the last time I had such a bad run. Just like 5 years ago, these woods just beat me up.
Looking back at the race, I feel like I didn't execute well enough on certain legs which is probably due to lack of racing, however, I still knew ,comming in, what I was supposed to do, and I just didn't.
I hate the state that I am in right now, Even though I am O-ing, I feel like I do this just to keep myself happy, however, realistically speaking, I can't train normally due to knee/ankle problem, which in turn, puts me in the possition where I am not fit enough to run/compete regulary not to mention running Blue.
I almost feel like I should completely retire (as Clem put it: hang up the compass) and only come back when and if I am at least 90% healthy or so. I know people have done it and I will be giving it some serious conciderations in the near future.
