ParkSchool
| 1. | Woods familiar, easy navigation to first control. | ||||||
| 2. | S trail, cut corner. | ||||||
| 3. | Straight, E of swamp. | ||||||
| 4. | +00:10 | Could find correct circle for several seconds due to poor contrast on map. | |||||
| 5. | +01:00 | Navigated to 6 first, losing some time before looking on top of cliff, not at foot. Forgot to check split after frustration of mistake. | |||||
| 6. | Retrace steps. | ||||||
| 7. | +00:10 | Trail run, choosing N option. S probably shorter and definitely less up and down. | |||||
| 8. | +00:10 | Retrace steps. Again, other (N) trail option probably better due to less up and down | |||||
| 9. | +02:00 | Argh! Choked utterly. Inexplicably chose not to run trail, then drifted way too far S missing stone wall entirely. | |||||
| 10. | Trail. | ||||||
| F. | Felt strong at finish, but damage done. |
