Northern championships second northerner third m16 forth on my course 50 minutes James the winner 48 minutes made at least two minutes worth of mistakes all in one control the last one in the zoomed in 1:2000 insert map there were two pairs of large bolder areas I think I was at the wrong pair and so looking in the wrong direction I realised after about 3 minutes that I was in the wrong place and I found it number 8 lost at least 1 and a half minutes if not 2 on James which would have put me with or even in front of him.
There were also two other controls that I lost some time on where there was a line of crags and I was coming to the top of them control at the bottom and I hit it and didn't know which way to go to get the control I educatedly guessed both times and got it right but the second time I was stood still for a couple of seconds
Other than those my navigation was basically clean with one or two bananas into controls
Running was very hard with the Hether so I think I was loosing time on Ben who was 49 because he's a quicker runner than me I also don't know if my route to the last control was the quickest as I went to the path to avoid the hether
There was one more small mistake where I missed read which path I was on so ran along it when I thought I was on s different one probably didn't cost me much time but could have if I didn't realise
Overall a solid run reasonably happy but not over the moon looking good hopefully for jhis though
