Event: Billygoat Run
 

33rd Billygoat, I think my 20th finish. JJ was wondering afterwards if he had finished more than half of the Billygoats he ever would. I'm pretty sure I have. Can't imagine I'll be doing this for another 20 years, and finishing under 3.5 hours at age 86? No way. So best enjoy it while I can.

Real nice course. I had a pretty good run, did a lot of good orienteering, just a couple little mistakes, certainly less than what AP is saying I made, as it doesn't account for the fact that sometimes I just slow down. Knew where I was all the time. Just the usual problem -- getting there. I got real tired the last 30 minutes, a bit depressing to end up in a group the last couple of controls and know they are all going to beat you in (with the exception of Angelica, as it turned out, who had a meltdown at the last control).

Thanks, Joe, great course. And proof, not that any was needed, that Huntington is so much nicer a place to orienteer than Harriman. :-)

I think I'll add a few leg comments in the splits.

Here's my route.
