| Middle at Kettle Lake. Absolutely amazing map by Alar! Very detailed, almost scandi feel to the area, except very steep. This was the most fun race I've run in a long while. Lost 30 seconds to the first control, just getting used to the 7500 scale. Then I settled in at a slow but accurate speed and only made maybe 1:30 mistakes in total. The others made bigger mistakes, but were running much faster. Eric Bone won with 39:30. Again my knee doesn't hurt while running, but the inflammation sure doesn't heal with this activity. Ran with a neoprene knee brace that I hope will help. |

| BC champs long at Sylvan Lake, Cranbrook. Haven't really trained at all the last 2 months because of the patellar tendonitis, so didn't have high expectations for my physical performance. Had problems at control 2, as had most runners. In my opinion the map was rather weak in the area. I also lost time at 9 as I missed a trail in a junction and then had to bash through some bad green stuff. Other than that I just got really tired the last 4 km. My calf cramped and I had to stop to stretch on the way to 14 and then I could only jog the rest of the way. 13 minutes behind Patrick. In general the map felt a bit old and rusty, but it sure was great to be out again! My knee didn't hurt during running, but it felt more sore afterwards. This one will be difficult to get rid of for sure, I'll probably have to live with it for a while. |
