bogtrotting 35:00 [1]
Jogging around Rössöy from Skjerneset camping/fish-factory/museum... glorious.
Afterwards, did some surgery and discovered the wee wound from last week where I had the stick hanging out for a bit was a good half-centimetre deep. I removed the bit of stick that was clogging the hole.

Note
Road past Lesja to Andalsnes, then Trollstigen to Valldal (met François G on top), boat to Eidsdal, Eagle Way to Geiranger, boat around the fjord to Hellesylt. Met Tue L and Elin in the hostel, he was back in from a 2.5h jog up a local hill (850m).
The car is still going strong, in case anyone was wondering :)
Norway is unreal.

WOC Long Selection Race
Craft Cup Verdal
Came 4th. Given my health issues, survival was the name of the game, no attacking this course. I ran an essentially clean race, got stuck a couple of times in the middle of long legs, although I'm sure proper post-race analysis will find minutes lost here and there in bits and pieces.
I wasn't in a good position going through the spectator control, but with almost an hour to go I pulled back several places as others didn't deal with the distance so well.
Nick and Andrew were well ahead again, but fit Neil would easily have been only a minute or three behind.
Happier today because I didn't orienteer like a pig with a bottle up its posterior, but I wasn't racing racing.
Garmin distance: 17km
