H2 course. The first half was fun, the bush was nice. I kept in contact with the map well and hit the first control spot on. Saw Craig coming by to 3 but then never saw him again. Took the road option to 6. Then crossing to the E side the bush became a lot scratchier and somewhere around 8/9 it turned to sandpaper (next time no shorts!) and my motivation dropped. This is also where I made my biggest mistake - ran down the right spur from 8 but once in the gully of pain where all the low scratchy stuff was I failed to take the right bearing going back up and ran up the wrong hill. Found a track that I concluded was unmarked and continued up a bit until a realised where I was. The rest went fairly well. Retired hurt from the sprint once I saw the map.
