Road running in Haines, Alaska. Back felt ok.

Day 2 of COCs. Back hurt from the start, made mistakes on early easy controls, caught and passed by Hammer. On the first long leg, told myself to push hard and see if my back hurt more. It did, so i jogged back on trails. Yuck.

Orienteering 36:19 [4] 3.6 km (10:05 / km) +150m 8:21 / km

Barebones Chase. Started by doing what I said i wouldn't - following blindly behind Lehel and getting completely lost. Miraculously, hit #2 same time as Mark Adams and ran with him a bunch losing more time and finally screwing up #11 and letting Mark get away. Yuck. Best time was 31:30 or so, but seems like everyone had major mistakes.
