CarolsTeam.org Third Thursday Adventure Series Sprint #1.
Came in second behind Eric @ 10:25 I think.
A good run. Slight bobble at 1st control, ran past it about 10m.
Right ham/glute is still acting up.

Sprint #2
Interesting format with an Ultra Sprint on a 1:1k map for the last 6 controls. Start time handicapped based on finish time of the first sprint. I was last out of the start, so to win I would have needed to catch and pass the rest of the runners. Very hard to do with the short legs of a sprint and even more so with the ultra short legs of the ultra sprint. Basically, someone has to be really slow or make a mistake. The lead runner made a mistake finding the last control that cost him the lead to the runner I was trailing. I made a bad route choice to the last control for about a 15 second hit. I'm not sure the distance to the finish from the last control was long enough to make up for being the last to punch behind a couple others anyway.?.? It was a lot of fun though and good experience changing from a 1:5k to a 1:1k in the middle of the event. Especially after my map change problems at the last 3rd Thursday.
Finished 4th.
Glute/ham pain was pretty pronounced by the end of the run. Ice and naproxen when I get home.
