Event: Canadian Championships Long
Running warm up/down 15:00 [1]
Orienteering race 1:54:49 [2] 11.3 km (10:10 / km)
Similar scenario as the middle.
Other than the humbling experience of getting taxi-ed around the forest like butter by Brian May, I was alone for most of the race...
Super fun terrain. Just hammer with rough compass and pick off marshes.
Or in my case:
Fumble around willy nilly with rough compass, and slow down to match up marshes, trails, and other black features.
Sad.
...still fun.

2 PM
Orienteering race 59:30 [2] 4.7 km (12:40 / km)
Loved the terrain!
Physically, I really couldn't push with any confidence on the rocky/uneven ground with lingering thoughts of my injured ankle.
More importantly though, I couldn't push with any confidence because I'm not comfortable navigating at any sort of speed.
My orienteering is shit right now, plain and simple. Until I hone my craft a little more, it will continue that way.
Crazy to think otherwise.

Running 19:25 [3] 4.58 km (4:14 / km) +25m 4:08 / km
Running!
Physiotherapist said to try running for 15-20 minutes...so I did.
Bloody sauna out.
Tried to increase my cadence and stride low to the ground, which was quite hard because I tend to be a bounder.
2 slight uphills, 2 slight downhills. Super flat running surface.
Verdict:
Uphills felt fine...did not feel confident going downhill or changing my direction. No pain in the ankle, but my foot seems to be slightly inverted.
Going to go for 25-30 minutes tomorrow.
Hopeful.
