fossil's comments - by leg

1.

3.
4.
5. crossed to N side of swamp to run the trail -- probably not the best idea
6. went just a bit right of straight down the red line
7.
8.
9. poor bearing and drifted too far right. eventually went back to hill top near #8 to attack again.
10. just after passing the green swamp I strained my hamstring and ended up walking much of the rest of the course due to the pain.
11. lost track of where I was left-to-right on this one. Saw a pool of water and thought it was the small pond just south of the control. Went N and hit the yellow border, oops, pool of water must have been one of those small swamps.
12. Looking at this leg frightened me. I couldn't see any good way to keep track of where I was along the way. Fortunately(?) I was forced to walk by the hamstring injury. As a result I was able to keep track of my position the whole way.
13. Was able to jog the downhill to the trail, then walked up the other side from the trail bend. Control was not in the right place, but quite a bit higher up the hill.
14. Managed to jog the rest of the way to the finish from here since it was all downhill.
15. Walked the white course Sunday with the kids. What a brutal white course! 2.9 km!
