Sunday Oct 12 |
 | O - competition (US Champs Rogaine) 11:55:00 [3]50.0 mi (14:17 / mi) | |
| |
| Good finish to rogaine. Only one mistake in the early morning (7:15 and it was still dark!) -- misjudged distance along winding stream section S from #36 and climbed to ridgetop after 1100m instead of 1300m -- it was just a spur and we had to drop off the backside and go up again.
Got everything on N and middle sections of map, all on SW except 48, 57 and 40; skipped low value controls around lake except 10 and 11. Total 1860 points of 2120 possible; 2nd place masters, maybe 5th overall.
Physically felt good. Steady pace throughout, jogging on the flats and downhills. Blister on one heel from worn out shoe. |
