Looking to build on the yesterday's races but committed all the rookie errors: (A) poor route choice, (B) poor execution, (C) misread map.
#1 - Overshot track (lost 30"). #2 - B+C (lost 3:30). #3 - Missed minor track & C (lost 7'). #4(5) - Couldn't find any minor mapped tracks through the pines & B (lost 3'). #5(6) - Left previous control without a plan (A). #6(7) - Perfect plan, but B+C at the end (lost 11:30). #7(8) - Perfect, but tired and slow by now. #9(8) - Missed imaginary track (lost 50"). #F - OK. Est time lost: 26:20. Best leg: #7 (8th/16). Best pos: 10th/17 (#4-5)

"East Kowen" (ACT). M60 / Course 4: 5.6km, +30m, 10c. 5th/8 in M60 (5:44 behind O-ing). 7th/15 on C4. 22°C. TE 3.4.
A bit of climb early (#2), then some freestyle navigation through the 'orange' (#4-8) and tracks to the finish. No real mistakes, just small hesitations on #2 and #9(-). Probably should have got back to the main tracks after leaving #10 for the finish run. SI-air at the finish wasn't working and I had to go back for a manual punch. Lost 10s? Est time lost on errors 1:15. Best leg: #4 (1st/15). Best pos: 3rd/15 (#1).

"Sparrow Hill", Kowen (ACT). M60 / Course 4: 11.2km, +140m, 12c. 4th/8 in M60 (19:04 behind Malcolm Roberts). 6th/17 on C4. 27°C. TE 3.8.
A lot longer than I anticipated in both time and distance. Only 36" away from a podium position. Generally happy with route choice execution. #2 - Missed turn on single track (-1:30). #5(6) - Overshot start of single track marked with tape (-55") then lost marked trail later on when it dog-legged (-2'). #11(12) - Very long leg (2.6km, +93m). In hindsight the trail from the south was very slow compared to the approach from the west despite the additional climb. Est time lost on errors 4:25. Best leg: #3 (3rd/17). Best pos: 5th/17 (#5-11).
