Estonia recap

So, I ended up finishing about where I expected (in the bottom third), but not for the reason I expected - my teammate ran out of steam long before I did.

Also, to my surprise, I think I would like to try this again.

Here is how it was reported on Estonian television.

No, my teammate and I didn't wear matching outfits.

Estonian television apparently has much lower standards for news-anchor hair.

There were some live electric fences - but they were either avoidable or they had grounded handles to allow passage. The biggest problem was a network of small drainage ditches that looked innocuous but were up to 4 feet deep. Some you could jump over, others required building a bridge with a fallen log.

Estonia is my second favorite Baltic nation, behind Latvia, but ahead of Lithuania.
