long - ran seniors
the race didnt go so well through the first 3 or 4 controls..
i had a good route choice set out for 2 to go around to the left but i got pushed by the forest into a more direct line so i decided from that point it would be fastest for me to go pretty much straight. I think i lost about 3-4mins from this error so not too happy about it.
i think my main problem for the race was my lack of fitness, because i look to be slacking off the pace in the longer legs and dropping a fair bit of time.
navigation was pretty good apart from a few route choices early on.
main aim for the course was to get some gruelling races in before jwoc long so i dont get shoved in the halucenation box again.
surprisingly didnt feel as wrecked at the end of this race as i did at jwoc long/relay last year, which is either really worring or reassuring
