Race Evaluation

Sumas Mountain Adventure Challenge: Middle Distance M21-34E (Course 8)

Nikolay

1.	Unused to map +00:40	The start procedure set me up for a bad race. We were being released from the start chute along flags to the start triangle through the forest without knowing from which direction we arrived at the triangle. I felt like put at the triangle out of nowhere. I did not see an intersection, stand there for a bit confused and proceeded to run on the wrong trail of course. Things did not make sense though after several seconds, and I decided to run on a compass direction until I cross the semi open ride. Not a good start and a set up for a clean race.Crossing the ride with a lot of deadfall was much slower than running on the trail.
2.		Ran on bearing
3.	No attack point +00:30	Hesitated after crossing the ride

5.
6.	+00:40	Proceeded slowly and uncertain. Stopped midway under the reentrant there thinking that this is the one right under the control. did not see the control, proceeded and climbed up and south, stopping 5 meters above the control without seeing it.
7.	Lacked confidence
8.	Bad compass work +01:00	Exiting CP7 in the wrong direction, coming to 8 way to the left
9.	Bad compass work +01:00	after crossing the road got a bit to the right and checked the hill to the right of the control
