1. | This was a terrible start to my first O in ages, drifting 200 m left of target. | ||||||
2. | Headed for railway crossing and drifted left again. Came out of forest early to cross field. | ||||||
3. | straightforward field run and I was not slowest | ||||||
4. | used the trails and I had already seen control from rail crossing | ||||||
5. | I was distracted by rail artifact with control en route | ||||||
6. | long trail run was my second best leg | ||||||
7. | took my time and ate as one hour had already passed | ||||||
8. | I dreaded crossing through the middle of the map by bearing again and came upon 49 first, at least 49 was on 18 my course | ||||||
9. | I used mostly trails and then my bearing took me left to 10 first | ||||||
10. | This should have been a great leg having already been to 10 but I stumbled when I got back in circle | ||||||
11. | I had hoped to use trails all the way but failed and ended up at 12 first | ||||||
12. | Of course this was best leg as I had already been there. | ||||||
13. | I took legal trails through campground for very long run. I fell into last place for good. | ||||||
14. | This feature in a crowd of features gave me trouble. Thankfully I did not head back down cliff. | ||||||
15. | slow messy wet trail run | ||||||
16. | Having passed a huge pink tape, I suspect that flag was at wrong feature | ||||||
17. | short leg, energy and time were running out | ||||||
18. | trail run to and along trail 11 but was wet, messy and I left trail way too early, my counting failed with distraction of other control flags | ||||||
19. | straight W and then S on main trail | ||||||
20. | S w/o trail, strong run | ||||||
21. | straight run thru campsites but I didn't need to see controls already being collected | ||||||
22. | I finished water and took a breath punching control. | ||||||
F. | Even so, my sprint was still 15 s slower than second slowest but hey I beat 3 hours. |
