Orienteering (Blouberg) 1:00:00 [3] *** 8.0 km (7:30 / km)
shoes: Inov-8 X-Talon 212
Didn't feel very interested or into it after Sat. Arches still very sore and ankles also giving problems. On top, had a large thorn inside shoe going straight through small toe on left side, still haven't gotten it all out. Was like running in the sahara (hot, dry) and after an hour decided to cut losses and not risk further injury or irritation so went to finish.
Small request, please organisers put North lines on the map. Although still very happy with the org, map etc so just a kind request if possible. In dunes have learnt that compass is my best tool with changing contours. Only prob is without the lines there is a big chance of 90 deg errors if map is turned and using edge of map. (I see in this case the map fragment was small so the lines were prob just outside of the area and one small frag is present but in the sea).
