Event: WCOC Mashamoquet State Park
11 AM
Orienteering race 59:59 *** 5.54 km (10:49 / km) +131m 9:41 / km
ahr:124 max:159 spiked:8/10c (injured) shoes: VJ Falcons 6
Green course at WCOC event on Wolf's Den map (Mashamoquet Brook SP). 4.5km SL, 130m of climb. Lots of open woods, some mountain laurel. Sunny and quite warm (low-mid 80s).
Knee is still sore, so a combination of walking and jogging, trying not to make things any worse. Missed #2 to the right (bad compass work) by enough that I didn't see the flag in the very open woods. Relocated off the field corner beyond it. A couple of minutes lost. Bobbled the last control by misreading where the bag was relative to the streams. Cut down the hillside rather than taking the trail, which likely was better. AP doesn't indicate a time loss, but I should've been at least a minute faster. OK on the other controls although I bashed through bits of laurel a couple of times when going around would've been better. Knee survived, no worse for wear.

Orienteering race 1:31:49 *** 6.88 km (13:20 / km) +148m 12:03 / km
ahr:113 max:147 spiked:8/10c (injured) shoes: VJ Falcons 6
Green course at EMPO local event at Partridge Run WMA. (5.0km SL, climb not advertised but counted ~110, most in the last 1.3km). Plan was to walk and bail if my knee wasn't happy. Walked through #4 then jogged off and on the rest of the course. Too complacent walking to #3 and missed it then misread where I hit the trail beyond it. Lost several minutes. Overshot #4 due to a parallel error on wall junctions. Stopped between 3 and 4 at the road crossing to chat with a local who was concerned by folks popping out of the woods (since usually such folks are lost). OK the rest of the way in. Woods were generally runnable, although I wasn't running much. Sunny and warm (upper 70s). Knee doesn't seem any worse but doing this didn't help it either.

Swimming 10:00 [2]
(injured)
600yds (+/-, tough to keep count of laps) mix of freestyle, backstroke and just kicking on my back. Could've done more but it's been a long time since I've used this particular set of muscles. Knee still puffy anD stiffens up rather quickly when idle. Spent some time in the hot tub both before and after swimming massaging and stretching.
