Event: DVOA Norristown Farm Park
 

8.32km on a 7.2km red - 115%
The agony of defeat was more than coming in last (and darn it, not a horrible run but stiff competition) I couldn't find my socks when we got there so I went with just my active ankle braces and shoes. After getting all that on I found my socks but decided it was too much work to take everything off just to put socks on... big mistake. The blisters I now have on the back of my heals are the size of quarters.

If anyone is reading this and has a tip for running with this type of injury, I'm up for suggestions as I cant see them going away by this coming Sunday.

I had several legs I did very well.... and only one leg where I was beat by anyone other than a red O'er.
Very bad route choice going to 15. I tried going up the stream but the rocks were super slippery, then I should have looked for the small stream but lost track of what I was doing.
Leaving 16 I figured crossing the stream would be fastest but I ended up going for a swim (literally) The water was over my head. Every other crossing I did was ankle deep. I didnt see that coming.
