Today I would like to talk about balance.
A little back story behind it. This year was my first year of Lincoln Games. This event is supposed to be an all 3 Fs event. The way I approached it is I focused on my 1st F. I wanted to complete all the challenges and get as many points for my team as possible. Because of that when I was meeting new PAX during the Games I was only half listening to them being focused on what else I have to do during that day. I was not able to connect with anyone and feel like I have missed out on 2nd F a lot during that week. And now a week and a half later I find it hard to get out ITG because how much I overdid it during the Lincoln Games. I’m not even talking about my 3rd F efforts as they were non existent
I put some thought into what happened during that week. I feel like the way to approach it is to find a good balance between all of of the Fs and stick to it. Even though Disruption is good for Accelerating I feel like it is good because it opens your eyes on how balance between Fs is important

I thought I try out a new route at The Citadel and show PAX one of my favorite trails in the area around Spring Lake
Unfortunately the route ended up to be a little over 4.5 miles long which is a bit too long for a 45 minutes RC.
Stay Puffed was at the site Q and was trying to find people around the lake who were already past that section and that made him to be late.
I should 100% know where is the midpoint of the route for the next time and maybe post a pace you should run at to complete the route in a given time.
I really enjoyed the group that got together today and will be Qing more at the Citadel as I start liking this AO more and more
