Race Evaluation
Ramblers OC (Montreal), Morgan Arboretum: Long snowshoe
boyle
| 1. | W on road, N on trail but hesitated too much approaching pit | ||||||
| 2. | took squiggly trail & learned that snow today was deep, soft and slow even while following elephant tracks | ||||||
| 3. | set my own track cross field to elephant track then climbed barbed wire & pushed through thorns | ||||||
| 4. | trails, knowing not to cut short across pasture just before control | ||||||
| 5. | Things got slower as I was frustrated trying not to ruin ski trails across the golf course. Slowed down too much approaching control. | ||||||
| 6. | I took zigzag elephant tracks all the way to traill which hosted #6 but then had to go SW some distance | ||||||
| 7. | Elephant tracks again to SE snowshoe trail, going off trail relieved any guilt regarding ski trails. Nice long run down snowshoe trails, thinking about upcoming national champs. | ||||||
| 8. | Tricky route: NE to ditch trail then along ditch to E trail but stopped short of field upon seeing large dogs in the dog walk area. Messed around on signed but unused trails. | ||||||
| 9. | I set out through deep snow straight W to join N trail to control but twice hesitated at other knolls en route. | ||||||
| 10. | elephant tracks | ||||||
| 11. | W then N on unused trail to winter road and run all out | ||||||
| F. | hard run to chalet and right in the door with snowshoes still on |
