Long race at Waitarere. Feeling pretty stuffed right from the start but soldiered on. Things going well for the first hour, although one of those races where while I was mostly always exactly were I wanted to be, often wasn't sure of it at the time. 1:04.5 to the 13th control and on target for 90-100 minutes (probably closer to 100), anything around 90 I'd have been quite happy with. But then hit the low visibility section. Of 6 controls, spiked the last 2, lost some time on the rest, including significant amounts on 14 and especially 16. Relieved to get back into the white forest after that, so relieved that I then completely blew 20 and completely overran 21. Did quite well on the one remaining control before the finish though!
