Bisterne Close Wessex Galoppen.
4th/15 (though Gavin forfeited his run when found a control missing)
Mostly stuck to the plan of trying to nail control in-out routine, except for 12 where I made the classic of making a bigger mistake after a smaller one - drifted N out of 11 (which I knew), went to visit a control I saw which I knew wasn't mine (losing about 30s), further drifting N, then when I corrected myself and got 12, I rushed and took the wrong path over the spur, adding lots of extra distance to 13 (costing maybe 1:20). Other than that smaller mistakes to 8 (vegetation wasn't quite mapped well - 40s), 10 (which I suspect was in the wrong depression, 40s), 17 (contours weren't mapped properly so was confused for a short while before reconciled the map with the terrain, 30s), then just stuck in heather to 18 which one could argue should have been mapped, so lost maybe about 5-6 minutes all together. Other than that a fairly clean run, probably on the right track, once I am not doing these with tired legs and mind I should be making up some ground to the guys in front.
