9:31am - Sunny, cool - a much better day for racing than yesterday. Since yesterday was a completely useless run and there was no way to make up 40 minutes, my goal today was to run clean. Doug Gosling, who finished first M35 on Saturday was starting 3 minutes after me on Sunday, so I vowed to get back to the finish before him.... And I did... Despite a 5 minute error on #4, I ran the rest of the course reasonably clean and quite strong the whole way. Doug caught me about halfway through, and tailed me for a few controls, but on the long leg between 10 & 11 I went straight (and hard) while he went wide via trail.. Passed Jim Baker on this leg. I managed to finish almost two minutes in front of Doug G. I also ran most of the second half of the race head to head with Andreas R. although we often took different routes, we would see each other at least once on each leg, usually near the flag, often with me hitting it cleanly and he correcting, punching behind me and taking off faster on the exit... Leg by leg comments later...
