1hr53 moving time, 2hr17 elapsed....
It was just awful. The area around the circle for number 1 was iust really vague and kept trying to make the map fit when i was in the wrong place. I think I relied too much on the vegetation and the clearings as they were not distinct and the mapping of them wasn't consistent. Got to the control the same time as a fee other people and decided just to follow them for the start of the next leg as they were going in the right direction and I had lost 20mins lost in the circle for 1. Thought they was going a bit off my line so presumed it was just courses and I tried to correct it and ended up going completely the wrong way and taking a very bad route. I was annoyed with 4 as a cliff was marked on the map just before the control and thought i spotted the cliff so didn't go near it. Turns out the control was under this unmapped cliff which was really confusing and threw me off. The second half was more uneventful with some boring legs and some alright legs. I've never had problems with the map before really but on both days i found i couldn't trust the map as it didn't really seem right. I guess it was just my bad nav.

Struggled to get moving near the start but the first few were clean and had no issues with nav. Ran past 5 so lost a bit of time there and after the few long legs the dunes turned really vague and i didn't like the map just didn't make sense. Reckon I binned at least another 10 mins in the second half maybe a bit more.
