Discussion: Nice pace!

Good race?

Thanks! It was a really good race, although about half of it was in open, mowed terrain, I was probably going about 8:00/km in the forest part of the race.

The whole area is very flat. About half the course was in a brushy maze - mix of rough open and thickets. Part of that was a former landfill with many linear depressions and ridges. The other half was mostly very open mowed campus and business park. Splits are here.

The Map is here

Isn't that the map from interscholastics last year?

I didn't use my normal SI, I'll claim the splits in a minute. Yes, the Friday sprint was there last year.

Yes, this is the same area that was used on Friday of the Interscholastics. They are cutting a new road through the center of the eastern half, north of control 6, and there is a new encampment of homeless people between 10 and 11. Long term plans call for development of the wooded area used by controls 2 through 8; we are not sure how soon they might start clearing that area.
