Event: Annual Goat Race
 

The rain actually stopped just before we were starting. (We had 3.5" in the last 3 days) I ran the meet (Junior Goat) in a T-shirt it was so warm. It was great to see Rob win the Full Goat race even beating Helen. They both will get their T-shirt.

The compression socks seemed to help my ankle. I did my usual few bad route choices, but overall most of my problem was conditioning. It was very steep. Once as I was sliding I grabbed a Jesus Tree (Devils Walking Stick) I have several lacerations and puncture wounds in my left hand I will have to keep an eye on.

I though Dan did a great job with the course design and setting given the little time he had to get it done. Somehow it all came together this year, big step up over last year. It was fun to be back in Tom Wallace again.

Set controls for the goat race. Thankful for spiked shoes on a very wet day and it was steep.
