Event: US Sprint & UltraLong champs
orienteering 16:44 [4] 2.2 km (7:36 / km)
shoes: x-talon 212
Sprint Champs at Mendon Ponds in Rochester. Did great.
At least that is what I decided after a bit of a jog and then a long slow walk, pondering the state of the universe in general and my particular spot specifically. The pondering was about how I wanted to spend the rest of my day, especially what sort of mood I wished to be in, and how spending it pissed off was really something that should be avoided if at all possible. So I determined that I had run great.
And in retrospect, that was clearly the right thing to have done, and a sign of progress.

Before, legs felt OK.
Note
Such a very fine end to the day, dinner with the CSU gang at Alex Jospe's parents, just up the road from Mendon Ponds. Totally first class in all regards (company, food, vibes, ....).
