Boulder Dash: Blue day 1

tdgood

1. Ran carefully to #1. To far left and checked out other reentrant first.
2. started off to far right and went to right of open marsh. Woods are crappy with branches and it is difficult to run in straight line. James Scaborough caught me here (He started 3 minutes behind me).
3. I walked up little hills and James left me behind. Wyatt said he saw us (He started 3 minutes in front of me).
4. Bad compass work
+08:00
I don't know what happen but I took a bad bearing on my compass and ran off the wrong direction. Things weren't right so I kept correcting but was unsure how far I had gone in the wrong direction. Over corrected. eventually hit stream way to the right, relocated and straight to control. By now I am beat. I am not in shape to run Blue.
