Probably too soon to start thinking about the negatives of today but may as well get them out of the way..
Mistake 1 was letting stress get to me and affect me
Mistake 2 not controlling my thoughts out on the course. Lost focus and couldnt regain it.
Mistake 3 not reading the detail in the control circles because I wasn't focusing
Mistake 4 not sticking to my bearings and panicking when I couldn't find the control
The only positive I can take away from this race is that I finished. A year ago I would have given up after number 9 (my nearly 25 minute mistake) but today I stuck it out to the end.
