OOCup Day 1
Misinterpreted the contours completely out of the start and things got steadily worse from then on. Couldn't make much fit until 7 by which time I'd made more big errors than I usually do in a year....and I mean huge. At that point i was hating the whole experience and I'd have happily jacked it in but gave myself a talking to and started again.
From that point on things went reasonably ok, and by 18 i was almost enjoying it. Only almost though.
What I like about multi days is that you soon have a chance to have another go..not that I wanted to early on today. Start again tomorrow.....32 degrees?
