O race at Pretoria botanical gardens

#1-#3 fine
#4 bad route.. kept right on the path and then had a very slow route into the control through the green (15secs)
#5 hesitant into it (2secs)
#6-7okay
#8 bit hesitant about the paths midway into the leg (2secs)
#9+10 just slow into controls(3secs)
#11 struggled to identify the thickets and was too far left (5secs)
#12 a couple small hesitations along the leg (3secs)
#13 got pulled off a bit by Nic and overran it (10secs)
#14-16 fine
#17 should've gone around the right (2secs)
#18 hesitant with paths and then cut into the bushes which was super slow. Would've been faster to contour around (10secs)
#19 fine
#20 should've gone left (3secs)
#21-23 fine. Just feeling slow to 21.

So no big mistakes, but still too many small errors and hesitations. Sub 20 should've been possible.

Running feeling okay, legs a bit heavy the 2nd half after a big week, but not as bad as I was expecting.

Control collecting

Evening run with the hound.

Fast 2km, then he was slow for the next 2 and then a nice quick last km around the block.

Greenpark, leslie, n.manor, block, home.

Decent mileage week :)
