Event: The Nick Bateson Long 'O'
O race (Forest O) 1:48:55 [5]
Was quite pleased with this run on the whole. Got the train down as I wanted to do the Brown and the course was a long way (and the weather was a bit grim too). That meant I was running ok, but still tired a bit towards the end. Was walking up the steep stuff.
Sloppy start to #1. Unmarked paths in the woods threw me off. But I should have been taking a proper bearing.
Ended up on the wrong path going to #3. Didn't have good map contact on the steep bit. Got a bit lucky finding it after I overshot.
Started executing much better after this.
Went over the hill after #16, might have been better to go round.
Ran round the hill to the east after #19, but looking at the map again, I think it might have been better to go over the hill.
After #22 was following someone at about the same pace, so was led into the controls after that. Mostly in good map contact though.
Should have had the confidence to follow the stream east out of #27. Would probably have been quicker than hauling myself back up the hill again.
