Bad route choice Did not follow plan Time Lost: 03:00 | Planned to come from road/trail, but changed plan for no good reason and followed white forest band (which was full of downed trees), which meant I had to climb up/down berm unnecessarily. ARGH!!! |
| 5. |
Lacked concentration Lacked confidence Time Lost: 01:30 | That berm climb sapped me - lost concentration on pace count so started looking early for the ridges, and went slowly. Once I recognized them, no problem |
| 6. | Time Lost: 00:30 | Felt a little tired on this leg |
| 7. |
Tired Time Lost: 02:00 | Ran trail out from 6, but died in the heat of the field, could only run parts of remaining trail, hesitated a bit on final approach to control, but direction was dead on. |
| 8. | Time Lost: 00:15 | Definitely tired now - clumped up along stream, but ground condition wouldn't have allowed much running anyway. |
| 9. |
Tired Time Lost: 02:30 | Coughing kicking up. Took northern trail route choice to spend less time in sun. Executed without error, but couldn't run much |
| 10. | Time Lost: 00:15 | Back in woods - ran most of this leg and nailed control. |
| 11. |
Tired Time Lost: 00:30 | Forced myself to run halfway, but was in full sun and couldn't sustain it. |
