| 1. | 900m | ? | -- | -- | -- | -- | 900m | ? | -- | -- | -- | -- | Very confused at start of race. Long first control was daunting.First decided to run trail a little, then it was hard to see on ground. Then debated leaving trail, but I remembered a few weeks ago when I did that without knowing where I was and screwing up the control. Found trail again, followed it to the marsh and reentrant, took bearing. Planned to cross 2 trails, then a stream, then look for my marker among the root stocks. I ran enough meters to get to the first trail, but I came to a stream instead. I looked really close and saw that it was blue, not black. Next, I climbed the hill and thought I crossed an indistinct trail. I kept following my bearing accurately, then started to aim a little left once I could see the stream. Then I searched all the rootstocks, moving right. I saw another runner go behind one and stay there for a few seconds, so I ran over there and found the marker. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 2. | 210m | 12:01 | -- | -- | -- | -- | 1110m | 12:01 | -- | +34 | 5% | 10:49 | Had looked ahead while I was running to #1, and I was able to take my bearing while I ran. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 3. | 235m | 2:27 | 3 | +11 | 8% | 10:25 | 1345m | 14:28 | 3 | +45 | 5% | 10:45 | Took a bearing but decided to contour around a little. I did, but I didn't get to the marker as soon as I thought. I was confused, and I hesitated. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 4. | 205m | 2:11 | 3 | +16 | 14% | 10:39 | 1550m | 16:39 | 3 | +58 | 6% | 10:44 | Liked the short leg. I ran up to the road, then looked down and saw the marsh to my left. I ran down the hill, which was pretty steep. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 5. | 540m | ? | -- | -- | -- | -- | 2090m | ? | -- | -- | -- | -- | Took a bearing. Confused when I got to the stream. Hesitated. kept going, got to distinct contour features and found rootstock. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 6. | 400m | 10:40 | -- | -- | -- | -- | 2490m | 27:19 | -- | -17 | -1% | 10:58 | Contour features also really helpful on this one. Even though the marker was in a gully, the top of it was peeking over, and I could see it from far away. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 7. | 290m | 2:32 | 1 | -21 | -12% | 8:44 | 2780m | 29:51 | 1 | -38 | -2% | 10:44 | Ran this one harder since a stream junction is hard to miss. Also, having the saddle on the way to aim for helped. I was off to the left but saw the marker right away. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 8. | 560m | ? | -- | -- | -- | -- | 3340m | ? | -- | -- | -- | -- | Ran this one fast, even though I was nervous that it was a longer leg. Got to end of stream and corrected my bearing, then continued. I crossed over the little spur, then looked for the reentrant my gully was in. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 9. | 300m | 8:26 | -- | -- | -- | -- | 3640m | 38:17 | -- | -1:58 | -5% | 10:31 | Followed the contours and relied on my pace. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 10. | 630m | 5:16 | 2 | +9 | 3% | 8:21 | 4270m | 43:33 | 1 | -1:49 | -4% | 10:11 | Went down the spur until I saw the big reentrant, then looked for little reentrant. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 11. | 350m | ? | -- | -- | -- | -- | 4620m | ? | -- | -- | -- | -- | Liked the distinct contour features. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 12. | 380m | 7:02 | -- | -- | -- | -- | 5000m | 50:35 | -- | -2:13 | -4% | 10:07 | Crossed the stream at the right place, climbed the hill. I was really tired. Looked down and saw tire tracks in the field that looked like a trail. I stopped and looked at my map, and there was no trail. I knew I was in the right place because I'd just climbed that hill. I kept going, got to the stream, and saw my marker far to the right on the other side. I had to jump into the stream to cross it. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| 13. | 190m | 1:01 | 1 | -1 | -2% | 5:21 | 5190m | 51:36 | 1 | -2:14 | -4% | 9:56 | Took a bearing, saw marker. | |||||||||||||||||||||
