Hickory Goat: 9K Little Goat

| 1. | Following the crowd up trail and through the open. How could this have been faster than straight? | ||||||
| 2. | Still following, got a bit wet through the marsh. | ||||||
| 3. | Not having seen 9-10-11, I decided to skip 3 and push it on the trail to 4. Heidi Onkst went with me. | ||||||
| 4. | I might have been the 1st for #4, came in off the trail at the form line. | ||||||
| 5. | Aimed left, got a bit bogged down coming down along the cliff line to the flag. Heidi caugt up at the control. | ||||||
| 6. | Straight to the left of the green, ticked off the 3 small ponds before entering the dense green in the circle. | ||||||
| 7. | Aimed a bit right, fixed the position at a stream bend, and in. | ||||||
| 8. | Wanted to keep to the right of the stream bend and avoid crossing it twice, but running with a group and went left of the line, crossing twice, and running nearby the small thicket. Came off the path just after the small pond that I had misread as a bare rock and in. | ||||||
| 9. | Straight. Attacked from the reentrant SE of the circle. | ||||||
| 10. | This flag was mishung about 100-150m W of the circled depression. Went to trail, ran around an icky green pond, and pace counted from the T-shaped trail junction along a contour. I thought others were too high, while I went low to relocate from the oblong depression S of the circle. The many eyes of the group helped locate the flag that was nowhere near the circle and not even a comparable feature. | ||||||
| 11. | Went to 11L via the Fourth Run Trail to another T-junction, then carefully pace counted and matched the reentrants, and missed. I was coming in from the trail bend E of the flag when I heard the group had found it. | ||||||
| 12. | Pushing downhill to the trail, ran across the spillway getting feet wet intentionally, then to the stone wall T and in. | ||||||
| 13. | SE to the road. Tim + 1 had gone straight. Alone on the road, I came in from the road/trail jct straight north. Tim had just left as I approached. | ||||||
| 14. | SE to clearing to road to dirt road, seeing if I had enough to pass Tim on the run in. As we approached the crowded beach area near a road bend, I ducked off the road and sprinted around a building and between 2 dumpsters, gapping Tim where he couldn't see me. | ||||||
| F. | In to the chute clear of a cramping Tim in 3rd place. |
