Race Evaluation
HVO/WCOC Winter Series 2021: Green WPR North WS#8
cmorse
| 1. | Up trail a bit, then across the slope, trail through the more intricate bit, then down the reentrant. | ||||||
| 2. | Pretty much straight | ||||||
| 3. | Again with the straight, missed slightly L in the circle | ||||||
| 4. | +00:15 | Left of the line, a couple momentary hesitations to check map, was a little lower on the slope approaching control than I intended, but spotted it uphill in distance and corrected | |||||
| 5. | Straight and pretty smooth, passed Peter in here... he was going elsewhere. | ||||||
| 6. | straight and clean | ||||||
| 7. | +00:30 | Across slope to trail junction, but must have misread compass as I ended up in the broader reentrant above control and, not seeing sharper reentrant immediately, paused and checked up a bit before correcting and headed downhill. | |||||
| 8. | +00:30 | Contemplated going straightish, and initially started that direction, but quickly decided that dropping left to the trail would be a much faster option and probably no real elevation hit since all the little ups and downs on the straight route would likely have been at least as much as the climb up from trail about 3/4 of the way along. And then approaching control I was aiming for the edge of the green but misread something as I wound up too low and had to climb back up | |||||
| 9. | +00:20 | Pissed at myself for missing #8, this was just sloppy running with a late correction | |||||
| 10. | +01:00 | Again trying to read the green and got up much too high and floundered a bit in the rocky ground before coming down hesitantly to the flag | |||||
| 11. | +00:30 | Coming down the hill, wasn't 100% sure where I crossed the wall vs cliff and then checking each boulder in sequence rather than reading the clue before coming around | |||||
| F. | And a pretty zippy finish. Had thought about possibly doing the final 6 controls on Red as a cooldown if the mood struck me... but it didn't... |
