| 5. | This was hidden by a tree stump in the depression, so I exited the depression before reentering it and noticing the control. | |

| 9. | N.B. This leg did not contribute towards the final time for the race, as it crossed a busy road. | |

Did not follow plan Bad compass work Time Lost: 00:45 | 1850m! Not any immediately obvious route either, apart from "straight", and a technical finish! This leg had it all. Ended up at Control 23 by mistake, on the way. |

| 16. |
Did not plan ahead Did not check features en route Took a chance Ran too fast Bad map reading Lacked concentration Disturbed by others Time Lost: 03:15 | My worst leg - I completely misread the map, climbed up a steep bank, missing the control by a few metres. Then headed back down to relocate... |

Did not follow plan Did not check features en route Took a chance Underrated difficulty Ran too fast Bad distance judgement Time Lost: 02:15 | A tough control - I should have approached it more slowly. |
| 18. |
Bad route choice Time Lost: 00:45 | Went a silly way, trying to lose a pack. |

| 21. |
Underrated difficulty Bad map reading Bad compass work Confused parallel features Followed by others Time Lost: 01:15 | Made a silly parallel error here, caused by not trusting indistinct paths. |
| 22. | Time Lost: 00:30 | A little slow, tired. |
| 23. |
Tired Time Lost: 00:30 | A silly route - again trying not to follow the pack. |
| 24. |
Bad route choice Tired Time Lost: 01:00 | Again, trying to go a different way to the person ahead. |
