Event: FVO Regional Event, World Ranking Event & Scottish O League 1
 

All day (and evening) on the computers for our big event at The Trossachs. I'd entered but in reality there was no way I could have got out to run; sensible not to, anyway, as my achilles was a bit sore after yesterday, and running for at least another 90 minutes would have been somewhat foolhardy.
A very enjoyable day, all going off pretty smoothly from the computing perspective, and I even managed to get all of the results done and RouteGadget up before hitting the hay! Looking forward to having a nice long weekend of O at the JK next weekend with someone else doing the work :-)

Event: FVO Middle Distance Race
 

Middle Distance race at Touch, Vet Men's course, 4.3km. After five hours on the computers I got out to play, and what fun it was. No grumbles from my achilles at all, nor really from my legs which, considering that I haven't run for weeks now - or done anything at all for 8 days - was good! OK, so I probably put off loads of people with my hacking cough but it didn't bother me too much. :-). One of my cleanest runs ever - only about 40s lost. All my navigational choices worked and the controls were where I thought that they were going to be; amazing! If I could actually flow through controls instead of stop and read... but, hey, still the most fun I've had orienteering in, ooh, millennia. Thanks, Steve, for planning such fine entertainment.

Wee trot up to the start, keeping pace with young Scotia - not often I get the chance to say that these days!!

Physio says that things aren't improving, so it's off to the sports doctor with me for diagnosis and probable injection. Greeeaaat.

Guess what. Sick. Now with extra green chunks.
