Sore right calf from Sunday, but went for a bit of a jog before entering and it felt ok; not sure if this was a good decision. It was fine at the start but gradually deteriorated so I eased off after a while, so didn't run as far as usual in the 75.
I have realised that I have a psychological need to run North at the start of a score event which I probably need to get over. I didn't think about it anywhere near as much as I promised myself I would, just started running as usual. So got quite a few controls but not necessarily many points as usual, although not as much of a car crash as last time I don't think. Early enough such that could've got another 50 though, especially if I hadn't run down a significant dead end.
Good food in the pub and chat with Sam afterwards, also found out the DEE urban next week is pretty close by, so will give that a go I think.
