Run race ((orienteering)) 17:54 [4] *** 2.7 km (6:38 / km) +30m 6:17 / km
spiked:14/15c
NAOC sprint, 10th M45 about 3 minutes behind Brian May. A fairly disappointing run both physically and technically. Never really got myself going, having perhaps the run I expected to have yesterday after limited preparation (my warm-up was running to the start after a commentary stint). Achilles, which has been good this week, also a bit iffy at times. Navigation was pretty wayward too; dropped about 30 seconds after ending up on the wrong side of the buildings at 3, then had suboptimal routes to 4 and 6 as well. Still a good sprint area - they did a good job with what they had.
Carcross has also become a bit of a mountain biking mecca (Anna and Marquita did some exploring in the afternoon). A lot of this was built as part of an indigenous development project (as noted on the display in the town, building trails is part of the culture of the local people, situated as they were on the trade route between southeast Alaska and the peoples of the interior) - perhaps something we could learn from in Australia?
