NZ Champs classic distance. Wobbly at start, only spiking two of first six controls. Managed to steady the ship but lost 12 minutes in first third of race. Won some legs and regained concentration, lost 2 mins on second last control to slip from 2nd to 3rd, well behind winner. Struggled with mapping interpretations on new pine forest map. Grunty hills but climbed well
