South Africa's highest o map today, went above 2000m on the course. Cool area with lots of rocks in open and in runnable pine forest. Little yellow butterflies everywhere in parts of the forest, amazing.
Pretty scrappy run with lots of little errors, dropped far too much time. Can't even blame the magnetic rocks which were causing compass chaos for people as I coped okay with that, just sloppy on final approach to controls.
Finnish team all did 44-47 mins, Nick did 48, Dave 54, Martin 65.
10th overall after three days as so many people have only two scores, it is all downhill from here...
