SOL Middle H1 at Peterdine. Can't say I enjoyed this run which was disappointing as I normally love running at Peterdine. Just too steep and rocky underfoot to be enjoyable for me. A few controls didn't seem in quite the right place but with all the small scrappy rock over that side of the map it was hard to be sure of anything and all the rocks underfoot meant I was never managing to read the map as much as I wanted to.

I'm struggling to think of a single control that I ran into confident of where it was going to be but I didn't really lose much time on any. Had a significant hesitation coming into 4 but that was probably good as I spotted the control where I wasn't expecting it and I was much faster than anyone else on that leg. I'm told 7 was wrong but I stumbled across it before even thinking about what it was supposed to be on. Lost a little time at 11 because I assumed the couple heading down the creek would have seen it if it was higher so I aimed just below them but they must have walked straight past it. Slightly off on 12 but spotted it fairly quickly (why put a control on a single triangle of boulder field on a slope covered in rocky ground?). Struggled a bit on the climbs at the end but made an effort on the finish to try to dip under 40 minutes and just made it.

Running warm up/down 9:31 [2] 1.52 km (6:16 / km) +16m 5:57 / km

Long run in KP. Couldn't help lifting the pace a bit when one of Raf's groups started coming past me on the long climb up Lovekin Drive. Felt pretty good when it flattened out after that and kept it going to the end.

GA's 5/8 surges. Foiled by herbicide spraying again. This time it was the second half of the last effort so I just stopped early. Probably on track to be about a minute slower than last week but a minute faster than any other effort.
