Car ride up Friday night was not pleasant while the sitting hurts.

I had decided to take it easy and stop if it was hurting. It was uncomfortable with the hunched over type running, under trees etc but otherwise it felt surprisingly okay. Not too many rocks in the terrain. I did take it really easy when sliding down cliffs or if I needed to go across rocky grounds.

So with no pressure, just enjoying the beautiful woods! And where it was nice and runnable I couldn't resist to speed it up!

1: Went a bit to the right of the line
2: Right, to the trail, hard to follow the trail, lost it a couple of times, went to the trail bend between control 3 & 4 and attacked 2 from there. Samantha was just leaving the control as I got there, think she started 5min after me.
3: Before I was ready to head to 3, Sam was way gone
4 & 5: Slow and steady. At 5 I saw Marie-Kat.
6: Marie-Kat & I took different routes. I kind of got lost to the right of the line, couldn't find the trail. But we met up at 6. Off course I was on the wrong side of the control-marsh, didn't check my definition.
7: Took off thinking "this is a tricky one", was moving in the right direction but couldn't locate the green. As I was over shooting the control, going down the hill, I saw Samantha leaving it, still kept going downhill. Made a loop and came back to find it.
8: Went left of the big marsh, checked feautures but stopped too early, took me a while to figure it out.
9: Straight on
10: Right side of the line, crossed the trail and then went a little left of the line, down to the lowest point and just followed the hillside to the control.
11: Downhill, tried to avoid cliffs and rocky grounds. Saw Marie-Kat again.
12: Straight on
13: Followed the trail until hill on the right flattened out and cut across
14: Trail
15: Trail, got off it and crossed two steams, was too high, relocated when I saw the open area (red lined on the map)
16: Down the hill, hesitaded by the trail but went down the reentrant and had to climb up the powerline to the last control. Sigh!

FR 8.443km

So, slow with a lot of stopping, a few mistakes, was able to speed it up when I felt like it. Not really that tired afterwards.

Felt similiar to the terrain back home.

run 5:00 [1] 0.8 km (6:15 / km)

jog from the finish back to the assembly area
