Night O Champs. First in M65, a couple of minutes ahead of Bob Lux, but a couple of minutes behind Izzy Bryant. Good for her!
Surprisingly good fun. Beautiful evening certainly helped, plus everything was dry, no water in the streams, no mud on the trails. Ran the Brown course (M65), 3.4 km, 220m supposedly. Decent run, several little bobbles but not much, would have taken a very good run to beat Izzy, as she was certainly leaving me in her dust on all the uphills.
Pleasant surprise was that the woods were less green than mapped. Could go most anywhere, the greens were a little slower but no a reason to detour too much. Whereas lessening the hills and making the navigation easier were good reasons to detour.
