Event: Billygoat Run at Mt. Tom
Orienteering race 2:12:00 [4] 11.1 km (11:54 / km) +680m 9:06 / km
ahr:157 max:176
Hardly a race today, as shown by my HR, but I honestly don't think that I could've gone much faster. The hamstrings from the run friday were burning almost the entire time and every hill was such a trudge. I know it was for everyone but...
On the way to 1 I didn't even see it and was actually blindly following while trying to figure out what everyone else saw that I didn't. Finally got it about 50m in, and by that time it was too late to change my route choice. Not sure the way I went was the fastest.
Ended up running with Mom the whole way 'round, which was cool and more enjoyable for me to be able to have someone to talk to (rhetorically at the least) about routes and to complain to about the uphills!
We were off on a few controls but most were pretty decent. Fun course, with a LOT of climb.

Orienteering race 30:00 [3] 2.5 km (12:00 / km)
After finishing the 'Goat and gorging myself on soda, pizza and cookies Boris grabbed me and suggested we run the sprint. Hah, right! ..Oh, not run, jog. Jog? really? I can jog, even on belly full of pizza and coke!
So we jogged, and chatted and had a great time on this 'cool-down'!
