Confused a bit to #1 as you had to go back through the car park from where you'd just come. Navigation was pretty good for all of them except maybe 16 and 17 where I was a bit too far right. Really muddy and slippy. Lucky I didn't pop my shoulder when I was holding onto a branch on a slope and my feet went and I landed completely on it. Really hurt. Mixture of urban and wet parkland. Felt good on the urban (it looked a bit rough). Found a long tunnel but it was so dark I couldn't see my hands. Think it was a good route but should have taken a torch. Fell over again in a patch of brambles. Dad started behind me and nearly caught me up but was very pleased to finish ahead of him. Then found out he only beat me by 7 seconds ...
