1. | +00:30 | Climb uphill, somewhat slow after running around at Junior Camp yesterday. Go straight, no compass, hit the control right on. | |||||
2. | Around the hill, over flat area, drop clean into control. | ||||||
3. | Through swamp, along cliffs to boulder. Slow on the wet rocks. | ||||||
4. | +00:30 | Wow, barberry bushes at a mature stage. Turn around once, because I imagine already pulling the twenty thorns out, I decide not to push through the bushes. Pass through green on trail, drop to control. | |||||
5. | Uphill, spongy legs, good passage through barberry field. | ||||||
6. | Over the top of the hill, past the basketball court. | ||||||
7. | Run on top of hill on the trail, drop right to the mine shaft. | ||||||
8. | Down on trail, cross power line, contours below green to control. | ||||||
9. | Downhill, still very slippery, so I am cautious. | ||||||
10. | +00:30 | Long run along hill side and across yellow hill. Staying somewhat lower might have been better. | |||||
11. | Down to road, pull into road which almost leads to control. | ||||||
12. | Cross the parking lot diagonally, go up west of cliff, around on the trail to avoid the scratchy barberry bushes. | ||||||
13. | Straight down to field, then dotted green area , almost on line. Study the next route choice. | ||||||
14. | Go down to road. If I had more strength left, I would go over the hill, probably that is faster. But the road is better for my tired legs. | ||||||
15. | Along hill, pass above cliff and run down reentrant. (This way would have been also a way to get to number 14, but I didn't see it then) | ||||||
16. | Run. | ||||||
17. | Run and run. | ||||||
F. | Run and finish. A good run, somewhat exhausted from running so much. Some route choices make me think. Since it was wet and slippery, I usually took the trail route if possible. |
