Brindley Heath - Brown
Very poor nights sleep but wanted a run around Cannock Chase and this looks to be the only event running up to the JK. Feeling pretty tired and agin very sinusy so was going to push.
At start I heard rumblings of issues and the said to miss out #3. in -1 box overheard that the planner had sent the wrong file to be printed. Totally forgot about missing 3 until I was nearly at the feature but there was a control thre anyway so punch and carried on. All was well until #10. I wondered around in the heather for 2-3mins looking for the control on a shallow gully. After retruning to the upper gully a couple of times and finding no control I then found it on the lower gully. Also lost ~2mins on 11; either the map is terrible or the control was on the wrong ruin; unsure which.
Had lost total confidence in anything being correct after this point and lost time on 13 as a consequence. All then totally went to pot on 16. Bingo pit, hunted but could find it and came in twice on an accurate bearing the second time walking and pace counting. Decided it couldn't be there (it wasn't). Carried on at an even cruisier pace from this point with Dave Roome for company for a lot of it. Nearly ran to 19 instead of 18 and there was another two controls that were ~30-50m from where there were on the map but got them both without too much issue.
At download I found it had all gone totally to pot and the wrong mapping files were confirmed; the brown course had changed also.
