1. | Didn't carry a compass on this sprint which probably gained me at least 2 seconds per leg. Here on 1, I made a quick decision not to look for any short cuts through the green. | ||||||

Bad route choice Did not plan ahead Underrated difficulty Not thinking clearly +00:08 | Here was my biggest mistake of the race. I had decided not to let fences dictate my route choice, but here they were too close together and too close to the control for hurdling, so ended up stepping and | |||||

6. | I was looking ahead in this race, and this leg, in particular was planned in advance, so there was no hesitation. I was checking out C12 as I passed through the portico. | ||||||
7. | I was 10s off the leaders here, but I am not sure why. | ||||||
8. | Took the longer L, because R had some climb and too much "stuff". I took the lead on this leg, so that was probably correct. | ||||||

Underrated difficulty Bad map reading Tired +00:05 | Went R instead of the slightly shorter L because L had too much "stuff". I could have done this faster by staying on the pavement longer, and going R around the belltower instead of L (I thought I saw some "stuff" but it was just the N line crossing the road). | |||||

Tired | Another choice between R and L, with the correct thing to do is to pick one quickly. I picked R. I think it helped that I had already looked for C12 on the way to C6. | |||||
