Event: Hobbs State Park
11 AM
orienteering 1:17:05 3.58 mi (21:32 / mi)
ahr:136 max:176 17c
Hobbs long course.
On the way to the 2nd control I turned my right ankle. I must have stepped on one of those tennis ball sized rocks that are scattered around in the forest. I thought about quitting. But when I stood up my ankle felt uncomfortable but not really unstable. I walked slowly to 2. Then I walked to 3. I decided I'd keep walking as long as it felt uncomfortable but not unstable. I made it around the entire course. I jogged a little bit on the trails to 14 and 17.
I've no idea how my ankle will recovery. There's some swelling, but it doesn't feel too bad and it doesn't seem to be unstable. I can stand on one leg, so that seems good. I'll probably wear an active ankle when I run the Possum Trot in a couple of weeks.
be-the-map did a nice job with organizing the event. A few locals attended and seemed enthusiastic. It'd be fantastic to see a club start up in north west Arkansas. be-the-map has also made a campus sprint map of NWACC.
We had a nice meal with JJ and Nancy before driving home. JJ's working on Swedish and is impressively good. He's better at Talk Four but maybe his Swedish will pass that soon.
