orienteering race 1:16:12 [3]
Not as good as yesterday. Tentative to 1 trying to understand the mapping. Never really did but pushed on to the bottom of the cliffs and found the control no problem. Had similar issues the whole course - some of the map made perfect sense and other parts not so much. It didn't really affect me too much but I probably hesitated a lot trying to make sense of things even when it didn't really matter. Messed up 7 going down too early. And took a poor route to 13 (went down to the road). My legs were toast and I was tired and I just couldn't formulate a plan that looked reasonable and I knew the road was safe. But I lost a good bit of time on the leg so definitely not a good choice.

Event: West Point A-meet
orienteering 1:08:14 [3]
Pretty clean run. Well fast hike really. Knee was sore when I tried to run although I did jog on the road in to the finish and on one or two trails. We had a beautiful downhill leg (9-10) that would have been so much fun a few years ago. The 1:7500 map made it easy to navigate especially in this area that was pretty uncomplicated.

TNT - on the drive with Sandy.
Bad week in terms of not enough exercise and too much eating. Need to turn it around.

strength & stretching 10:00 [3]
PT exercises. Been pretty good about doing them.
Visit to the PT. Things seem a bit better but not a lot. Icing feels surprisingly good.
Also, I may have figured out the one thing that aggravates things the most: reading email on my iphone. Bending my head down seems to make everything flare up and tighten up. I am trying to hold the phone up at eye level when I look at things.
And, I've also discovered that if my shoulder (rotator cuff) gets sharp pains that if I roll them up and back something moves so that it doesn't hurt anymore. Not just hurt less, but not hurt at all.
Would be nice if this is all steps to fixing issues that I've been sort of living with for a while.
