| 1. | 1079m | 11:09 | 8 | +1:31 | 16% | 87.2 | 10:20 | 1079m | 11:09 | 8 | +1:31 | 16% | 10:20 | With the crowd up the hill, picked up Peter approaching the first trail on top and followed him into control. My split 3s faster than his even though I punched behind him - but I take my split before punching, he must take it exiting the control. Slow on rocky hillside, but thats to be expected. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 2. | 288m | 1:42 | 9 | +20 | 24% | 84.3 | 5:54 | 1367m | 12:51 | 8 | +1:51 | 17% | 9:24 | With Peter, Kristen and others - my split again a little ahead of Peters even though he punched ahead of me. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 3. | 992m | 8:46 | 11 | +1:28 | 20% | 84.5 | 8:50 | 2359m | 21:37 | 9 | +3:19 | 18% | 9:09 | Still with the Peter train, though sensing their pace probably too strong for me to stay with all day given my lack of conditioning... | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 4. | 870m | 9:48 | 14 | +3:19 | 51% | 68.7 | 32 | 11:15 | 3229m | 31:25 | 13 | +5:38 | 22% | 9:43 | Took the L fork - chatted w/ Peter on the way up the hill - he said he hadn't decided on which fork - but I think that was BS and he was just trying to figure out if I was jockstuffing or actually navigating - and in this case I had decided on this option independently even though I did hesitate momentarily leaving 3 when most everyone else seemed to be taking the R fork. | |||||||||||||||||||
| 5. | 324m | 3:12 | 4 | +26 | 16% | 90.5 | 9:52 | 3553m | 34:37 | 11 | +5:17 | 18% | 9:44 | Peter & Kristen (and others rejoining from R fork) now starting to pull away. Hooked up with David Onkst who went R and never even saw that the leg was forked. Pretty much ran with David the entire rest of course - mostly due to feeling that it would rain soon, my vision would go to hell and I could at least follow his bright yellow shirt and that our paces were similar. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 6. | 248m | 2:27 | 12 | +30 | 26% | 83.7 | 9:52 | 3801m | 37:04 | 11 | +5:39 | 18% | 9:45 | Peters line, but not with Peter anymore... | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 7. | 580m | 5:57 | 17 | +2:00 | 51% | 68.4 | 1:00 | 10:15 | 4381m | 43:01 | 12 | +7:27 | 21% | 9:49 | went to high on hillside to R, had to correct back downhill | |||||||||||||||||||
| 8. | 295m | 5:18 | 18 | +1:40 | 46% | 69.8 | 1:15 | 17:57 | 4676m | 48:19 | 12 | +9:06 | 23% | 10:19 | hit marsh in green, thought it was marsh beyond control, turned back, but quickly figured things out even though a number of other people were headed farther out that way | |||||||||||||||||||
| 9. | 404m | 4:39 | 24 | +1:47 | 62% | 64.9 | 30 | 30 | 11:30 | 5080m | 52:58 | 10 | +10:35 | 25% | 10:25 | missed seeing the trail out to road, must have parallelled it to the R - popped out near ruin and down to field. David pulled up early in the corner, I ran up the hill into the reentrant calling David up with me. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 10. | 600m | 5:46 | 15 | +2:08 | 59% | 67.1 | 30 | 9:36 | 5680m | 58:44 | 7 | +12:43 | 28% | 10:20 | Had originally thought 10 looked to be a good skip (or as good as any), but the field looked so runnable as to make that a moot point, so saved the skip for later. Got slightly L into the woods in the barberry and a clean line out of barberry took us slightly beyond the control and had to come back | |||||||||||||||||||
| 11. | 321m | 2:41 | 8 | +42 | 35% | 76.2 | 8:21 | 6001m | 1:01:25 | 13 | +13:22 | 28% | 10:14 | A couple faster, younger runners ahead of us but they ran past flag and we got ahead of them | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 12. | 326m | 2:46 | 9 | +33 | 25% | 82.3 | 8:29 | 6327m | 1:04:11 | 12 | +13:46 | 27% | 10:08 | pretty much on Peters line from here to 14 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 13. | 244m | 2:23 | 9 | +45 | 46% | 72.7 | 9:46 | 6571m | 1:06:34 | 13 | +14:19 | 27% | 10:07 | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 14. | 96m | 55 | 8 | +10 | 22% | 82.4 | 9:32 | 6667m | 1:07:29 | 13 | +14:29 | 27% | 10:07 | depressed to find we were in like 32nd place or something. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 15. | 658m | 5:12 | 13 | +1:09 | 28% | 78.2 | 20 | 7:54 | 7325m | 1:12:41 | 12 | +15:36 | 27% | 9:55 | got distracted by wall segment to L before correcting - David spotted it first | |||||||||||||||||||
| 16. | 296m | 4:38 | 23 | +2:27 | 112% | 50.8 | 30 | 1:23 | 15:39 | 7621m | 1:17:19 | 13 | +17:53 | 30% | 10:08 | R of Peter's line - a bunch of folks going higher - including David, but eventually went back L and got it fine - was hesitant to strike out on my own as running solo would certainly be slower, but wasted a little time staying in contact with the pack even though they were off line | ||||||||||||||||||
| 17. | 273m | 3:01 | 11 | +37 | 26% | 81.8 | 11:03 | 7894m | 1:20:20 | 12 | +18:20 | 30% | 10:10 | pretty clean downhill run on the line. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 18. | 569m | 6:19 | 13 | +1:43 | 37% | 76.3 | 30 | 11:06 | 8463m | 1:26:39 | 12 | +20:02 | 30% | 10:14 | Peter's line to trail, but then we got above the rocky reentrant and had to cross down and across - but almost right into control - | |||||||||||||||||||
| 19. | 638m | 7:29 | 19 | +2:46 | 59% | 65.3 | 1:00 | 45 | 11:43 | 9101m | 1:34:08 | 12 | +22:48 | 32% | 10:20 | David and I discussed skipping 21 - didn't seem too good to me, but at this point, not too many others looked promising either. Trail sucked and slowed a bit reading terrain approaching the platform. Must be Billygoat Kharma that the control with my initials this year was a Kolbottnar... | ||||||||||||||||||
| 20. | 754m | 9:56 | 13 | +3:27 | 53% | 71.5 | 13:10 | 9855m | 1:44:04 | 12 | +26:15 | 34% | 10:33 | Slog up the hill, but it was over relatively quickly and the run across the top was nice - we went R of hill top rather than Peter's line. Headed down the other side David misread reentrant and yelled that we needed to go farther L but I knew we were good and got him back over my way and down cleanly | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 21. | 150m | 1:27 | 8 | +21 | 32% | 77.0 | 9:40 | 10005m | 1:45:31 | 11 | +25:21 | 32% | 10:32 | Straight down and nailed control - glad we didn't skip this one - decided to skip 23 instead... | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 22. | 748m | 7:30 | 13 | +2:31 | 51% | 68.8 | 40 | 10:01 | 10753m | 1:53:01 | 11 | +29:06 | 35% | 10:30 | trail run then in - I had my my compass on #23 though so good thing David was paying attention and corrected quickly when we overran to the boulder in the green above and beyond - quick correction | |||||||||||||||||||
| 23. | 343m | 4:35 | 15 | +1:51 | 68% | 61.0 | 44 | 13:21 | 11096m | 1:57:36 | 12 | +30:38 | 35% | 10:35 | wound up on top of spur above #23 - so close we might as well get it - which of course left #25 as the only viable skip left - though at the time it didn't seem that great. | |||||||||||||||||||
| 24. | 696m | 8:14 | 22 | +3:58 | 93% | 58.0 | 2:30 | 1:40 | 11:49 | 11792m | 2:05:50 | 12 | +33:26 | 36% | 10:40 | contoured through steep rocky ground to trail - in retrospect we would have saved a lot of time/climb by going directly to trail, though when tired, running to trail higher up spur seemed like more work - just stupid thinking. Down trail to other end of knoll then spiked control | ||||||||||||||||||
| 25. | 169m | ? | -- | -- | -- | 0.0 | -- | -- | 11961m | ? | -- | -- | -- | -- | skip | |||||||||||||||||||
| 26. | 531m | 3:30 | -- | -- | -- | 0.0 | -- | -- | 12492m | 2:09:20 | -- | +34:24 | 36% | 10:21 | not much energy left, David pulling away - for some reason I was thinking there were 28 controls and leaving 26 couldn't find #27, but this run-in was similar to last years local course, so I quickly realized it was over - and ran as best I could. | |||||||||||||||||||
| 27. | 289m | 1:29 | 7 | +18 | 25% | 84.3 | 5:07 | 12781m | 2:10:49 | 12 | +34:35 | 36% | 10:14 | Spongy ground on the run-in prevented any kind of sprint, but I wouldn't have caught anyone anyhow. Finished in 28th place, 9 back of last year an nowhere near my beginning of year goal (15), but quite happy with the run - no major booms, and the minor ones often due to fogging glasses and misreading map/terrain - so I feel quite blessed that I didn't have bigger problems. And 90 seconds would have gained me 7 places to 21st, though there was a huge gap to 20th... Very fun run.... | ||||||||||||||||||||
