Nice day. really messed up #4: stopped to help ursiemac who was very lost, and then i got turned around! after relocating to the large trail, i led hughmac3 right to this control, the well. you're welcome, dad.
couldn't decide route to 5 - went to wrong trail, but it could have worked ok, then changed my mind to 'right' trail. woods over to 5 were very pretty (off trail,) i loved the big reentrant ditch thing. the rest of the course ok, just very physical and annoying to go all the way down the fire break and then all the way back up it for only 2 controls. (but i loved running DOWN the fire break!)
rolled my ankle pretty fiercely on the run in and was limping and cursing, but then it felt ok so i ran. been icing it on and off and i think it's fine, just need to be careful.
all in all i felt great physically, like i could have kept going! but i wish my navigation had been better (it really was not that hard of a course.) the only better feeling than running through the woods on a beautiful fall day, is nailing the controls while you're running through the woods on a beautiful fall day, while 3 other family members are doing the same!

Poking around Ridley...nice on the other side of the creek, I've never been there before. But then I wasn't feeling very good and had to cross the creek and come back earlier than I wanted. Not sure how tomorrow will go.
Beautiful day.
