Running 36:17 [3] 4.23 mi (8:35 / mi)
Nice jog along the river. Knee was pain and discomfort free! Still thinking about running technique.
Last Sunday, Izzy told me that my running form was a bit odd. More specifically, I don't lift my feet much. She's was great at demonstrating how 'normal' people run and then showing me how I run.
So, today I tried to lift my knees/quads higher, bend my knees more, lift my feet more.... Dunno. Anyone know of a good guide to improve running technique?

Orienteering race 1:37:14 [3] 5.5 km (17:41 / km)
What a gorgeous day. I loved the set-up for the relay, great for spectating. The Jr Jr relay was so exciting... but I'm biased, of course.
Probably spent too much time spectating, because after the rest of my team completed their runs solidly, I blew my run by taking a looong time and mispunching. What happened? Part-way between 2 and 3 (a 200 meter leg), I thought I was actually going 3 to 4 (a 100 meter leg). This switch-a-roo probably happened as I fiddled with my map looking for the control descriptions. After traveling for 100 meters, the vegetation got thicker. I was in the light green between 2 and 3, but thought I was entering the dark green just beyond 4. I thought I should be near the control, but couldn't find any of the catching features I was looking for. Nothing made sense. After about a half hour (!), I eventually relocated and punched 4. I didn't realize I missed 3 until I downloaded, saw the missed control, and reviewed the map to reconstuct what happened.
