Back to Henry St. My legs are pretty tired from plyo earlier, so the rest of the way back home is merely a plodding walk.

Whew! I decided to really go for it today, mostly since Alex was starting just 2 minutes after me. Really the only things that changed were my mindset, and then my prep included the typical pre-race visualization and I actually had a couple of things I was going to focus on. One of which was pushing physically.
In the first part of the race, I kept making glances back over my shoulder, expecting to see Alex right on my heels, but I didn't see her. I had a few very minor bobbles in the control circle, but nothing more than 5-10 seconds. The long leg drained me. I had been pushing physically from the get-go, but once I got to 7 I had to slow a bit just so my heart rate could come down a bit and I could think straight! Thankfully all the remaining legs were pretty short, but Alex definitely kept gaining on me there. I saw her behind me while I was going to 15, and I had nothing left to put up more of a gap. Bummer! She ended up getting me by about 1 minute. I'm glad I had a solid race though, and was able to keep her from catching up the entire way. It's kind of amazing how the racing mindset makes a world of difference in results.
Fun week all around! If you haven't been to Laramie for orienteering before, try making it out here sometime.
