JIRCs Individual-1st!
Determined to actually do well at a JIRCs for once so I was actually pretty nervous before I started.
Looking at map in start boxes thought we would be staying in the technical bit but turns out planner had other plans.
Had looked at a leg almost exactly the same to number 1 earlier in the week so knew what I was going to do straight away. Unfortunately screwed it up in the closing stages of the leg, following wrong reentrant/on a non-existent ride then drifted off down hill. Luckily realised relatively quickly where I was and got back on track. 3-4mins lost.
So angry with myself after this (thought I had lost a lot more time than I actually had) that I just kind of kept running fastish-terrain was such tough going but rage was getting me through it fine! Nav clean from then on just slightly confused when I got to number 2 expecting it to be on the boulder when it was actually on the hill. Caught up a massive train 3-4 which gave me even more motivation to run.
So tired once I'd finished and annoyed at my idiocy going to 1 but turns out it was enough to win!
Cough reappeared once I'd finished and couldn't stop for ages-hopefully it's nothing too bad just a passing cold or something.
