Javalina Hustle
Was alone for the most part after making some mistakes, plus there weren't too many people around my speed anyways. Started off in somewhat of a pack and then ran past 2 while trying to decide which control to skip. Luckily Boris was following me so he lost some time too. Sped up to try and catch Jan but took a bad route down a reentrant through some thorns and then thought my control was on the other side of the fence which cost some time crossing back over. Lost another 30s in a tricky area and then really messed up and lost 4 min by going up the wrong spur after thinking I was already at the clearing. From here I was all on my own with a quick glimpse of Boris at some points. The rest of the course went well. I think my routechoice to 14 was good but I'll have to see the livelox. Physically my calfs and feet were sore if the first half but subsided in the second. Knee felt good other than the odd soreness when crossing a gully.

Catalina Classic - SWSW Day 1
Went a lot better than last year, probably due to more familiarity with the terrain plus it was in an easier area. Took it pretty easy bc knee which felt pretty good with some tape. Managed to not run into any cacti, just lots of thorny bushes.
1 - Solid start
2 - Turns out the large green circle was a major saguaro instead of the small thicket I was looking for but bearing was good so I got to it anyways, just a little confused.
3 - Good, but should have gone right of the line through the wash
4 - good
5 - Tricky leg but didn't make any big mistakes
6 - Tried to stay closer to the line but ended up getting pushed way off by some veg. Should have just stuck to the wash and taken the trail at the end.
7 - Good
8 - I could see a hill behind the control as soon as I climbed out of the wash so mostly just picked my way through the mesquite as efficiently as I could.
9 - Same sorta thing. Easy target way off in the distance.
10 - Good job picking up on all the washes.
11 - Kinda slow through some rocks and veg
12 - Mostly on trail
13 - Running along the wash would have been faster but this isn't a race or anything so took the less boring route. Although it was more of running to a hill in the distance anyways.
14-F - Good, mostly just trails

Was gonna go down RT but it was pretty muddy. Shin felt good. Nice to see it's getting noticeably better every day. Hopeful I'll be able to run most of the event at SWSW
