RMOF. Twin Boulders Eastern Extension. Start 9:52. Cool at the start, but warmed up by the end.
Steadier race than the previous two days. Splits only flagged me for one error (46 seconds at #10, but that control was misplaced [which didn't affect me] and misdescribed [which did]). However, I also made half minute errors in the circle on 6 and 7. Thought 4 and 9 were my best legs and they did indeed turn out to be my highest split rankings (1 and 2). Eight of my splits were in the top seven.
Very physical day. Really tired out by the sage, and it seemed like a lot of climb. I enjoyed yesterday more.
3rd overall on Brown, way behind Glen, 33 behind John Harbuck (32 behind on the (essentially) streamered route to #1!).
Some of the diwnhills were gravelly and I had trouble in my Salomons. Thinking about my metal tips tomorrow, though if there are marshes, I'd rather be wearing the Salomons.

Warm up. Delayed a bit by several things so got to the assembly area a little later than I wanted, and ultimately only had time for a short warm up.
