| 1. | Nice and steady. Extremely easy control though. | ||||||
| 2. | +00:20 | Went immediately for the paths. Didn't like the runability of the 'white'. Attacked control too early, then circled around it a bit. I've still got a very high raking on this leg though, so I think there must be something wrong on the map. | |||||
| 3. | +00:45 | First stupid error. I knew I was too far right, but didn't correct. Had to run back along the earth wall, through some green. | |||||
| 4. | Path as much as possible. Boring section of the course. No encouragement to go into the forest as the bracken was too high. | ||||||
| 5. | +01:00 | Overshot past the right. Then overshot again coming back. Was expecting the control closer to marsh, but it was hidden behind rootstock. | |||||
| 6. | Better. Picked up all the indistinct paths. | ||||||
| 7. | Confidence going well here. | ||||||
| 8. | |||||||
| 9. | |||||||
| 10. | +00:15 | Got confused when the fence I was expecting to avoid wasn't there? Doubled back to a better route choice. | |||||
| 11. | |||||||
| 12. | +00:20 | The green seemed a bit off near the control. Relocated well though, with little time lost. | |||||
| 13. | +02:00 | Bingo control. Haven't seen such a classic for a while. In a pit, shoved down into the ground, in the middle of high bracken with no decent features nearby... | |||||
| 14. | +00:10 | Very low to the ground again. | |||||
| 15. | |||||||
| 16. | Long slog back up the hill. No route choice, just run for over 1km. | ||||||
| 17. | +00:15 | Slightly too far to right leaving control, but corrected. | |||||
| 18. | +00:10 | Slightly too much of a loop to avoid green. | |||||
| 19. | |||||||
| 20. | Entered heathland for the first time. Controls easy from here on. | ||||||
| 21. | |||||||
| 22. | |||||||
| 23. | |||||||
