3. |
No attack point Bad route choice Did not read control description +01:00 | Poor route choice in first part of let. Ran through too much dark green veg instead of cutting straight down to road. Second half was excellent, ran straight to control, although I didn't have a good attack point. | |||||
4. |
No attack point Bad route choice Did not plan ahead Read map too late Bad map reading +01:00 | Didn't look at the map closely enough. There was a trail right where I wanted to go, but I cut down through the hillside into some dark green and very steep terrain. Did well once I got back on the trail. | |||||

Bad route choice Did not plan ahead Did not check features en route Read map too late Bad map reading +01:30 | Very poor route choice, didn't plan ahead. Ran back up to the trail, then made a 180 error. Should have just cut down to the road. Second half, decided to cut down to the RR track, when I should have stayed on the road to the clearing. | |||||

Did not follow plan Did not check features en route Bad map reading Confused parallel features +01:00 | Left the road early at the wrong turnout, again, not looking closely enough at the map. Discovered my error quickly, but stubbornly decided to hack my way through the brush instead of going back down. | |||||

Did not check features en route +00:15 | Pretty clean leg, but ran past the control at first. Didn't keep in touch with the map the first part of the long trail leg. | |||||
8. | Could have kept in better touch with the map, but pretty good leg for me. | ||||||
9. |
Bad route choice | Pretty good leg, although I would choose a different route if I had to do it again. | |||||
10. |
Bad route choice Did not plan ahead Bad map reading Followed others | Same comment at 9. My route sent me down hill and then back up a steep hill (I had to walk the last part). I could have come in from the North and not had to lose as much elevation. | |||||
11. | Great leg, but a very easy one to a trail junction. | ||||||

Bad route choice Did not plan ahead Did not check features en route Read map too late Bad map reading Could not relocate Followed by others +01:00 | Didn't keep in touch with the map early on, so made a big mistake in route choice when I relocated myself at the wrong place. Once I finally figured out where I was, the last part of the leg was clean. | |||||
13. | Fast leg, but again, to an easy trail junction. | ||||||
F. | Didn't sprint to the end, just ran at my regular race pace. Watching some of the others finish (espcially Andy), I saw some pretty quick finishes. Next time, I sprint. |
