| 1. | P | Couldn't see the circle on map, missed the control and ran all the way to #2 | |||||
| 2. | No problem since I had just came from there. | ||||||
| 3. | Slowed a bit trying to find my way through to the path, then got confused by the out-of-bounds tape when looking for the passing point. | ||||||
| 4. | D | Contoured along to control, but proceeded slowly. | |||||
| 5. | Took left-hand route around olive green. | ||||||
| 6. | P | Run along path and attacked from the bend. | |||||
| 7. | Couldn't tell from the map if I could go straight, so went to the left outside the park and back in. | ||||||
| 8. | Doglegged outside the park, then in through the gap in linear hedge towards control. Stopped one playground too early as there was a control on similar feature. Luckily I checked the code to be incorrect and continued onward to the right control. | ||||||
| 9. | Slow exiting #8 trying to be careful not to step into olive green area. | ||||||
| 10. | P | P | R | Saw that control is placed inside of wall, so planned my route appropriately. Did hesitate slightly on final approach as a wedding ceremony was being held in the out-of-bounds area. | |||
| 11. | P | P | R | Didn't get tricked by the out-of-bounds, and doglegged in the direction of #9 to get on the path along park perimeter to control. | |||
| 12. | P | R | Ran along the perimeter path, passing #19, then up the steps to control. | ||||
| 13. | P | P | left of straight line, navigating through the maze of paths to the fountain, then down the main path to open grass field and cut across to control. | ||||
| 14. | P | D | P | R | Went right to avoid olive green, then up along the NE edge of garden to the end before turning to the control. | ||
| 15. | D | Dogleg back out and down to the stone wall. | |||||
| 16. | P | Didn't quite get the map set in time before exiting #15, so was slowed a bit trying to get my bearings. Unnecessary time lost on a simple short leg. | |||||
| 17. | P | Ran south along path past the wall, then turned SW to the second corner. Familiarity with same control location as in previous courses helped. | |||||
| 18. | R | Picked a longer route down the main path west, then south through the playground to control. A better route is perhaps using the smaller paths slightly right of red line. | |||||
| 19. | P | Took the left-hand route here without hesitation. But it's possible the right-hand route may be shorter. | |||||
| 20. | P | Went east and zig-zagged up the first set of stairs, then follow path across fountain and clockwise around the tower to control. | |||||
| 21. | R | NW along fountain, then took the main path down towards #2, turned north and ran through playground, which was slower. Might have been better to run near the pavilion, use the path west down the steps to the control. | |||||
| 22. | Left around the olive green. | ||||||
| 23. | P | R | Didn't plan ahead, so hesitated which way to turn for the control. Then, kept thinking there's a gap through the black-green hedge for a more direct route to the control. Ended taking the left-hand route, going around and then through the small shelter to control. | ||||
