Race Evaluation

DVOA: Hickory Run: Red

randy's comments - by leg

1. Bad route choice
Time Lost: 02:00
Got greedy tried to cut corner rather than follow the roads. Was greener than mapped. Also missed first big swamp and had to come off swamp behind it
2. drifted a little left hit indistint swamp at road bend (which was really a lake now) then picked off contour features on the way in
3. ruin to cliff to trail to bend past small cliffs then up spur. Hit small reentrants to the left and went it. People had trouble with this one -- I don't think it was mishung, it is a big feature; clue description should have said upper part
4. aimed for halfway swamp but drifted left again. went up left side of swamp and keyed off of swamp bulge
5. Time Lost: 00:25went to 5 because I didn't know there was no 5 -- then went staight to 6 hit tiny hill to the SW and relocated quick
6. straight never saw that swamp but all the sudden saw a big reentrant and bag
7. stayed high to road thru fields then took bike path
8. bike path

Total Time Lost - 00:02:25
