Long Distance.
Went into this race excited and ready to leave it out there. I wasn’t fully warmed up by the time I started and missed #1, but then won the next leg so that all evens out :P
The terrain around 3 was really weird and lost some time hesitating there. Don’t really remember the next few CPs but once I get the Routegadget up that will help lol.
Lost time on 7 because I was hesitant going up the spur even though I didn’t need to be.
Then on 9, I thought I was further down the hill than I was and started looking for a cliff too early. A downhill blind leg is not a good time to zone out. On 10 I took my gel coming up the climb into the circle and thought that I had the end of the leg for sure but then made another bobble.
Too high on 12, but after that I picked it up and made some good time on a nice downhill.
Vilppu caught me going to 16 and we were given’er to the end.
A little sloppy for my liking but still came out with the win.
Thanks to all the organizers for a fun weekend with stellar terrain and great courses!
