Walked around this course as gently as possible ;-) and was rewarded with very little pain. It helped that there were plenty of wide, grassy trails and I didn't feel like there was anywhere near the advertised amount of climb (in fact, pretty much all of it seemed to be in one leg straight uphill)
Went NC since I didn't know what would happen, though apparently my score would have been about normal for this year anyway. Better to not be tempted to run, and also in case I would have had problems and DNF.
Even moving slowly I had one dunderheaded moment where I almost skipped control 4 (since you had to go past 5 to get to it, then come back almost the same way, I simply forgot I was only coming from 3 and started looking at the closest control) and another later where I took the wrong fork in a trail but not for very long.
Some very beautiful woods, small ponds, etc. and the weather was perfect with rain holding off until the drive home.
