Race Evaluation

Pond Mountain WCOC Meet: Red

1.	+00:30	Poor route choice: all the way around and cut in after stone wall. Came in too low and went around the knoll and back.
2.
3.		40 seconds for water. Then, road all the way down to the stone wall and right to it. Added climb, but making legs navigationally easy is usually faster for me.
4.		To the trail bend, past the uncrossable marsh to the north, and then right to it. Slow and careful.
5.	+04:00	Came in north of the reentrant I was planning on attacking from, but thought I was south of it. Did a bit of wandering before straightening it out.
6.
7.
8.	+08:00	Did a 180 leaving 7, and though the cliffs and contours didn't match the map, I scratched my head a lot before it hit me what was going on. Then, got careless going back and ended up way north of 8, though once I corrected, I went right to it.
9.		Down to river bend, to first trail for a bit, down to second trail. Tried to run here for a clhange! Past the junction and cut in after the swamp (pit on the right). A bit left of the flag, but not bad.
10.	+04:00	My second 180. At least this time, I hit a trail after about two minutes and knew instantly what I had done.
11.		40 seconds to drink water.
12.
13.
14.		Stayed on trail almost to bend, and cut in between the knolls.
