First O in about 18 months and last time on this map was about 5 years ago. A very nice fall day and worth the drive out to WI for a socially distanced event. Protocol and execution on that score were top notch! Definitely rusty and dropped a couple of minutes on the first 2 controls being off line (to the left). After that settled not a rhythm, albeit slow plod. Couldn't find a couple of the trails (eg 3-4). Nice "middle distancy" section in the middle of what was otherwise a "long" green. Some other bobbles and last minute directional deviations on an otherwise good line. Some parts very runnable and others a rocky footing nightmare. My iwatch had me moving for 85/97 minutes. Something dubious about control 15 - either location or the mapping of the hiking trail I used to attack from is not correctly marked. Distance in seems about right. Course was pretty nice with good challenges for the most part, except for a few legs that the vetter should have adjusted (eg dog legs, gratuitous climb) and a propensity to hang controls high and visible from direction of travel (not that helped much with abundant orange fall colors :-). A nice day out in the woods and a big thanks to all the volunteers who made it happen.
Power zone endurance wo with focus on comfortable cadence to meet power zone target. 10 wu then PZ2 for 4 R Z2 1, PZ3 for 4 R Z2 1, PZ2 for 4 RZ2 1, PZ3 for 4 RZ2 1; 213/119/88/30
