| 1. | 885m | 9:09 | 3 | +1:49 | 25% | 91.7 | 10:20 | 885m | 9:09 | 3 | +1:49 | 25% | 10:20 | Down the trail then along the power lines to the top of the hill. Over from there reading the marshes on my left. When I reached the big cliffs on my right I cut left to spike it. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 2. | 210m | 2:36 | 7 | +1:20 | 105% | 63.2 | 40 | 41 | 12:22 | 1095m | 11:45 | 4 | +3:09 | 37% | 10:43 | As I took off, I noticed Eddie Bergeron coming from behind. I knew we were headed to the same control so I rushed ahead. In the process I passed the control. Coming back I could see Eddied leaving it. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 3. | 1275m | 12:27 | 5 | +3:09 | 34% | 86.2 | 1:00 | 9:45 | 2370m | 24:12 | 4 | +6:18 | 35% | 10:12 | I took off straight not seeing the trail option to the right. I glimpsed Eddie some and noticed he was moving to my left. I started to lose my place getting to the power lines but could makeout the water to my left. I cut right a bit and mistook one reentrant for a similarly shaped but larger marsh. This lead me to turn left onto the wrong ridge. At the end of the short ridge there was a hut of sorts which set me straight again. Going straight I reached the correct ridge and thought I left the trail there at a rock. I used a steepening of the hillside to clue me in and saw it from 70m away. | |||||||||||||||||||
| 4. | 270m | 2:53 | 5 | +35 | 25% | 87.5 | 10:40 | 2640m | 27:05 | 4 | +6:53 | 34% | 10:15 | I chose not to contour around partly because I've mess-up similar controls that way. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 5. | 1440m | 13:40 | 4 | +3:57 | 41% | 81.1 | 2:00 | 48 | 9:29 | 4080m | 40:45 | 4 | +10:50 | 36% | 9:59 | As I left #4 and went up the ridge I saw about 4 others headed to it. This was incentive to run fast which I did. Once I was headed downhill on the ridge I read more carefully and noticed the bend in the trail prior to the vague intersection. I cut left soon after then went along some marshy areas getting near; this wasn't efficient since it made an S-curve back toward the power lines. I figured I'd seen the high area on the power lines so I cut left a little too soon. There were many saddles in the area and I checked a few running without reading much. In the process I missed and got about to the trail before turning back and finding it not far from whence I had been before. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 6. | 435m | 4:04 | 2 | +47 | 24% | 96.6 | 15 | 9:20 | 4515m | 44:49 | 4 | +11:37 | 35% | 9:55 | Not pleased to introduce error to a much better run than the day before I ran a good pace on a straight bearing. I corrected along the way when I saw an appropriate knoll. I was a little left but got to the right knoll. A young woman from West Point stopped me pleading her case to show her where we were on the map--reluctantly I did and lost some time. | |||||||||||||||||||
| 7. | 705m | 10:25 | 8 | +5:37 | 117% | 59.0 | 4:00 | 3:17 | 14:46 | 5220m | 55:14 | 4 | +17:14 | 45% | 10:34 | My plan was to go down the spur of the ridge that #6 was on then come around the green on the flat open ground; then curling up to the control. I was quick going down and didn't pace count. The hill never seemed to flatten out enough so I fought my way through some green about 170m past where I should have. I surmised that the green had grown a bit. I realized the error once I stopped and executed a good correction back to the ridge where I could follow it around in open ground to the control. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 8. | 480m | 18:55 | 9 | +15:09 | 402% | 23.6 | 13:00 | 13:44 | 39:24 | 5700m | 1:14:09 | 8 | +32:23 | 78% | 13:00 | Not happy about another error, and worse than #5 at that, I rushed off on a straightish bearing after Ross who had gotten to #7 from an other direction just ahead of me. Ross' line was to the right and because I'd not read the leg I didn't see he was headed to the trail. After fighting my way through the green I hit the trail and went past it trying to get to the marsh to relocate. I couldn't get through the thorns. I tried 3 separate areas. The several similar rock walls confused me. I eventually came back to the trail and ran up it to stop at a cemetary. It took me a while to find the cemetary on the map. Once I did it was easy. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 9. | 270m | 3:23 | 6 | +1:26 | 74% | 67.0 | 45 | 45 | 12:31 | 5970m | 1:17:32 | 8 | +33:49 | 77% | 12:59 | Again not happy about another race with a big error leg I rushed out on a straight bearing. I hit a wall and followed it up right into the out-of-bounds area. Backing down I twisted through some thorns to go left around the out-of-bounds and slowly into the control. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 10. | 210m | 1:27 | 3 | +11 | 14% | 92.7 | 6:54 | 6180m | 1:18:59 | 7 | +33:57 | 75% | 12:46 | Out to the road... Started to go the wrong way but corrected after half a step. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 11. | 157m | 2:17 | 9 | +1:15 | 121% | 52.8 | 30 | 53 | 14:32 | 6337m | 1:21:16 | 7 | +35:12 | 76% | 12:49 | Remembering from the relay that some had said cutting through the thick area was not bad, I started to by looking for an opening on the left. I didn't find it until I came back to the tunnel. It was slow going through the thick area and I popped out to the left of the control. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 12. | 240m | 1:37 | 4 | +16 | 20% | 91.8 | 6:44 | 6577m | 1:22:53 | 7 | +35:28 | 75% | 12:36 | Down to the road quick then across. As I ran the grassy area I saw Gail Gagarin running on the trail and worried that she might miss it. She didn't have this control. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 13. | 300m | 1:20 | 1 | 0% | 100.8 | 4:26 | 6877m | 1:24:13 | 6 | +35:26 | 73% | 12:14 | Dance my way down the rocks to the trail then I picked up the pace on the parking lot. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 14. | 120m | 24 | 3 | +3 | 14% | 93.1 | 3:20 | 6997m | 1:24:37 | 7 | +35:26 | 72% | 12:05 | I really thought I was running faster than this... | ||||||||||||||||||||
