went for an easy run ...legs tired but not sore....after a mile felt real good.....did the base loop and then added Foxwoods to it.... what a super nice day out.....

Ran the Brown X at Hat Creek .....legs dead tired ....butt and hips sore and had a tick dug into the left cheek......on the way to 2 turned off the trail to soon and ended up to high ..... lost a few min. to help a young girl who lost and in a panic......then once again left my plan to get to No. 3 behind had head off to see what others were looking at.....BAD BAD BAD ....I just won't learn.....relo and found it but lost alot of time.....the rest of course was ok .... but I had nothing left in my legs and it was a slow jog in the rest of the way....... So out of 22 legs messed up 3 ....which cost alot of time.....just have to trust myself and get in shape for next yr. .....but most of the time I felt I was in control and knew where I was and had taken time to make a route plan....now just need to stick to that plan and not think others have a better idea then me......good trip home but I was real tired....fun weekend and glad I went....

Event: DVOA Fall Orienteering Festival
 

Ran the Brown X at French Creek......legs ok for most of the run....heel was not happy in some of the rocky ground.....messed up No. 4 big time ....had a good plan and was right on line heading to the trail aimed off to the right and was then going to turn left and hit the bend in trail and head in .....as I was heading down the last hill saw some folks off the side and thought they had it figured out so off I go to ck it out ....BAD BAD BAD.....after a lot of lost time relo back to trail and back on my plan ....and sure as hell bang no issue.....now mad and went to high to 5 and then went to far left to 6.... again thinking other folks were right and I was wrong.....BAD BAD BAD ....the rest was ok and no issues ..... one of these days I will learn to trust myself !!! then off to a shower and some fun at the wine shop.....and then early to bed.....

French Creek - Day 1 BrownX - Splits

heel still sore not as bad as the last two days but still not happy.....Maybe Phil is right this may slow my feet down so my slow brain can work.....now of to Pottstown Pa.

Heel hurt all day yesterday ....and was real sore this Morn. .....wanted get some miles in .....after a mile sore but run-able ....though I would try to do 4 miles and at the turn to head out west.....rethought it and figured that an extra mile won't help me and may make things worst.....got home heel sore but not as bad as yesterday.....seems every time I start to feel good and I hit a set back.....HELL !!!

legs good today ....so thought I would push them a little ...ran the hills of Greenbrier and Treat.....had not done them since June......left heel not happy from the start ...and real unhappy when I went up Greenbrier....better going up Treat.....a little sore the last mile.....hams tired and sore (just out of shape.) ....went to the store and when I got the heel was real sore and tight....hope it will be better in Morn. and not a set back ....I have lost enough time this yr. ....

Cool /wet out.....ran ovet E. Park....and ran the trails there.....legs felt good....took easy on some parts of the trails as footing was slick and could not see what was under foot in spots....
