Orienteering race 58:35 [5] 5.15 mi (11:23 / mi) +275m 9:45 / mi
(injured) shoes: Inov-8 Mudclaw 265 Blue
CA-ROSE H50 long race at Grolley, near Freiburg. 6.7km 220m 19 controls.
Good run; hot, green map, dry ground .Energy sapping. quite a lot of grot. Got stuck in one green ghastly patch due to poor compass work. 2 small misses. Slowed to a near-walk at no 4 as very vague & remembering British Long champs where I had no idea how to relocate. This paid off - just!
Good run & first in H50 by a lot - also faster than all H45s. 58:35.
Heel very iffy on the hard ground when going up hill - had to not use it - use thighs etc instead. Hmmm.
Result:

Hurting.
Heel / ankle / achilles definitely no worse than Friday, so the weekend was a success from an injury POV.
Happy with yesterday, annoyed that one control on Saturday ruined my BOC goal for the year.
