Orienteering 57:58 [3] 3.05 mi (19:00 / mi) +65m 17:50 / mi
I ran the Brown course today because I was feeling fat and out of shape, but once I got out there, I was feeling okay. I didn't take trail options because I knew that I needed practice following my compass; something I learned at Rochester. The first long leg on compass (to #6) didn't go so stellar, but the next one (to #8) went much better. It felt good to be out in the woods again, but I almost didn't go because I was thinking I might have to go to Shepherdstown. Mom went to the ER last night...she got bit by a spider on her hand! The doctor was concerned enough that he kept her overnight so she could get IV antibiotics. She's home now, and Don says her spirits are up. This is the second spider bite on someone I know in the past week. I wonder what's going on.
