Event: QOC Balls Bluff
Orienteering 1:00:00 [3]
(injured) shoes: inov-8 X-Claw 275
@ Balls Bluff.
Tired. I was up until 1 am the night before babysitting. My foot still hurts, though not worse than the day before I sprinted. I didn't run a course, the regular Sunday family schedule wouldn't have permitted it. Joined Jon on a walk through. Logistics were difficult because of the shuttles, but we managed to meet up and walk through a bit of the blue course. I was not dressed for running - in jeans and a puffy jacked. Lots of good pointers, starting from the most basic like how to use my compass properly on the map (my habit is to the compass in a way which covers up the terrain which is ahead of me) to more complicated like how I shouldn't sprint to a control after I spot it, rather slow down and plan the next route so I don't have to stop at the control - that's going to take years to figure out.
