Rogaining 3:02:00 [3] 23.4 km (7:47 / km) +940m 6:29 / km
A very local 3hr rogaine on Wanniassa/Isaacs. Took Tim from work/intervals on his first rogaine - he did a lot better than me! It was really hot but fortunately clouded over just before the start. I took a lot of water and a few gels. We planned a route that tried to clear the course. This turned out to be our major downfall - lots of inefficient dog legs and gratuitous climbs. After 2 hrs and at the furthest part of the course I was completely rooted, which meant we had to beeline back to the hash house - yet more inefficiency, especially considering the stop to buy a coke at Isaacs IGA. Got back to the hash house 15 minutes late - 150 points lost. I was suffering pretty badly at the finish and couldn't stomach any food. So all up Tim had a good lesson in how not to rogaine. I was quite disappointed in how badly I bonked - it seems to hit me pretty bad when it hits.
