1. | Wow, a crowd! Didn't realize Red, Green and Blue shared this leg! | ||||||
2. | Followed Mike Lyons up hill, but couldn't keep up. | ||||||
3. | Saw lots of people standing around looking lost on ride; went right in. | ||||||
4. | Went left, below cliffs and above swamp; didn't feel fast, but got in fine. | ||||||
5. | Wasn't careful and ended up two contours low. | ||||||
6. | Bobbled again after going left and again ended up low. | ||||||
7. | Spiked this one after blowing it two years ago. | ||||||
8. | Down to road chasing a blue runner. | ||||||
9. | Up hill, past blue control in reentrant (again) and then over. Was a bit lost until I saw the rootstock and then the control. | ||||||
10. | Slogged this one badly on the hill; just got tired. Eventually checked the hill just to the north; wasn't expecting it, but didn't want to go by it no matter what. | ||||||
11. | Down to the terrace, through the cliffs, past the bare rock/cliff and in. Real easy, but I wasn't moving well due to lack of confidence. | ||||||
12. | Still tentative, but saw two runners attacking 11 from 12, so it was easier. | ||||||
13. | Small pack formed and then dissipated. | ||||||
14. | Tried to remember from two years ago which side of swamp was better. Chose to go through saddle and north of green swamp, but then got tentative about 150 m from control. | ||||||
15. | Down hill across swamp and into thicker stuff than I anticipated. Lots of lost folks. Tentative, but mostly clean. | ||||||
16. | Move to the point where runners are converging. | ||||||
F. | Walk through rocks to crest of hill; then try to run. |
