Hope you are going to get well enough to hobble around the Boulder Dash. Looking forward to seeing you there.
Early returns are that it is somewhat better this afternoon than it was this morning, so maybe a few days rest will smooth it out.
Man, I think you start living in a bubble and stay away from all activity except orienteering!
And as far the Boulder Dash, I have a feeling we'd both be better off walking and navigating carefully, so if you're forced to do that, you may have the advantage ;-)
In retrospect, it would not have taken an advanced degree to have known better than to play football with a 12 year old. If the meet were today, I would be hard pressed even to walk a whole course, but I expect to be better by Saturday. Not sure how much worse running might feel than walking, but walking is a good strategy.
