Bea said at the start "will you come 4th?"
Me: No
Bea: "1st?"
Me: "no, maybe 12th."

Sally later that day "what was wrong with control 16?"
Me "Huh?"
Sally "the 40pointer you walked past?"
Me "Bollox"
23rd, but did the distance, and if I hadn't missed the control, annoyingly I'd have been 12th. Wasn't bold with the route choice, could have "comfortably" picked up another 70points. I need to start trusting my fitness and putting the effort into races. I'm too conservative and willing pootle round.
Also good to see I was only 2km/200m off 4th place for distance. More effort/more confidence/more focus
Nice to briefly chat with Duncan archer though
