Great course at Gladesville Hospital with loads of controls and route choice amoungst the buildings. Lost quite a few patches of time, firstly got caught out on the high wall from no.5 to 6 and deciding to change route halfway through losing 30 secs, then accidentally started running from common control no.10 to 15, overran no.16 and picked a slower route to no.17. Tied with junior Aiden Dawson for top spot who had a great run, 6 seconds ahead of Prong.

Gladesville Sprint - Splits

O at Lane Cove NP. Mass start with Mounty in very hot conditions. We started off with a pretty fast pace along the streets until Mounty started getting ahead once we hit the National Park. My ankle has been much better over the past week but didn't want to push it too trying to chase Mounty down in the rough stuff - it turned out a blessing in disguise as I was able to conserve energy without losing too much time. I passed Mounty coming back into the streets after he stuffed up accidentally skipping a control then having to back-track. We then stayed about 30-45secs apart through the rest of the course allowing me get get one more control at the end for 590 points missing no.8 only 30secs from the finish. The inform Glen Horrocks still got us both by getting all in just under 45 minutes.
