Race Evaluation

Nav-Stock: Middle #2

dness's comments - by leg

1. Time Lost: 02:30Blah. Not into map at all -- struck out into the woods. When I hit the trail, I was confused and took a few minutes to find the control.
2.
3. Took the trail S of the line, then 1st wiggly one, cutting over immediately to 2nd wiggly trail. When it dipped S, I set a course for the control. Drifted left and found the trail again. Easy from there.
4. S through saddle, etc.
5.
6. N until trail near #11, which I followed until the bend, then pretty much straight, hitting trail near control at reentrant just E.
7. Eish to limit climb, then contoured around.
8. Bad choice -- went N, fighting junk most of the way to the trail. As I was climbing up the hill (really slowly), three faster runners passed me, including Erin. She went R with them, but I went up higher. I was right, but not confident, and when I saw a control to the right below me I had to go down and punch it, only then discovering it was wrong. Back up...
9. Almost went up reentrant to N.
10. SE to 'valley' then up, landing right on top of a control on the longer course (pretty much on my line). Mostly straight from there. Really slow going up hill...
11. Mostly straight, pausing at the straight trail halfway there, finally deciding which one it was and continuing on to next.
12. Probably not the fastest choice, but easy -- NE to trail, then E to main trail, running it most of the way, cutting up when big trail to L came in.
13.
14. Navigation/route choice on the whole not terrible, but I was really slow.

Total Time Lost - 00:02:30
