Note
(injured)
Soo. The question is how bad it is now. I can walk on it and it's not grape-fruit swollen, just a little puffy around the outside bony ankle protrusion. Figure I'll know a lot more tomorrow.
Ideally it will heal enough for me to marathon with tape or a brace next Sunday, but I probably won't know until at least tomorrow and more probably mid-week.
At least won't be tempted to run too much during taper-week...
Running 2:23 [1] 0.27 mi (8:54 / mi)
Orienteering race 5:13 [4] 0.39 mi (13:22 / mi) +34m 10:31 / mi

Running 7:09 [1] 0.92 mi (7:44 / mi)
Orienteering 6:04 [4] 0.87 mi (6:58 / mi) +1m 6:57 / mi
Mini sprint! Nothing to tricky, just served it's purpose of ordering people for the brackets...
Running 5:30 [1] 0.6 mi (9:06 / mi) +3m 8:58 / mi
Running 10:16 [2] 0.97 mi (10:34 / mi) +13m 10:09 / mi
Orienteering race 13:48 [4] 1.74 mi (7:56 / mi) +66m 7:06 / mi
Team giggles starts together! And also takes the 1-2. I had a fine race, certainly faster than I needed to go, but whatever, it is more fun and better training at speed.
Running 5:48 [1] 0.52 mi (11:15 / mi) +3m 11:03 / mi
Running 9:39 [2] 1.04 mi (9:19 / mi) +24m 8:41 / mi
Drills 3:01 [1] 0.18 mi (16:27 / mi)
Orienteering race 14:29 [4] 1.94 mi (7:28 / mi) +18m 7:15 / mi
Woo multi-level. But really neat. Required thinking, wasn't impossible to figuer out. Maybe I'm a better orienteer than when I last encountered multilevel Barbican in the London city race.
Anyways, good back and forth with Will throughout the race.
Running 6:36 [1] 0.69 mi (9:36 / mi) +1m 9:33 / mi
Orienteering race 15:16 [4] 2.04 mi (7:29 / mi) +37m 7:05 / mi
Ah, and now many people going a fast speed! Some muddling around in the first set of controls in the confusing bit, Will came out of it ahead, then me, then Ian C. I closed a bit on Will, but that required going pretty hard, so didn't feel compelled to make a go for the pass. Ian C. gained on me and passed at around control 15.
I was very confused about where I might find 16 (low or high) based on running so close to my oxygen limit, so have to say, basically followed the men folk to that one, hoping they were more sure than I. For the final loop I was hoping to make up a bit of time, maybe make a bid for 2nd, but nope, just kept losing a few seconds. My time for 3rd in my heat was slower than Graeme Rennie's in his, so into the 10-20 bracket for tomorrow.
But a fun fast race, great to be pushed! Elise, Tyra and Kseniya are all also in the 10-20 bracket to decide the women's win tomorrow. (Although I suppose Tyra is actually in the junior category.) Game on!

Running 42:40 [2] 5.7 mi (7:29 / mi) +92m 7:08 / mi
Three thesis meetings. Gotta learn General Relativity to keep up with my students. Then a good talk from a speaker I invited on thermal physics in general and more specifically what the second law of thermodynamics means for quantum systems. Entropy increase has to do with the system and its surroundings becoming entangled. von Neumann entropy is probably worth understanding for this.
