I had such an amazing race, I was speeding through the forest soooo fast. I felt brilliant and totally on form, that performance is what I really needed before EYOC next week.
Nothing was stopping me in the forest I slid down muddy banks on my bum when I had too and I jumped over every ditch like a mad man!
Only one little minor error which I made due to exiting the control without a bearing on and looking at my control descriptions instead of the map. Didn't lose much time though.
I had an attack point to every control, I did an accurate bearing when neccessary, I used rough compass 95% of the time and I planned each leg and bombed it down tracks when I needed to.
If only I raced like this more often :D
