Orienteering 33:32 [3] 1.17 mi (28:40 / mi) +440ft 21:08 / mi
shoes: Salomon XA Comp 5 GTX
A bit of O at Ridley on last years Green Course, bailed early on after I just wasn't enjoying myself - ticks AND briars AND snow at the same time?? Also the footing was very iffy and I wasn't wearing my best shoes for traction. I'm glad I didn't force myself to do it when I wasn't into it. I am excited for Hibernia, though.
But -- this was good in terms of a 'reality check' for me - I need to set my goals really low this season, at least at the beginning. Not only am I really out of shape; I need to be super careful not to fall / re-injure my back. So I'm thinking that I should really just be walking Browns for a little bit.
Something is better than nothing!
PS BRIAR PATCH WAS MAILED OUT TODAY
