North Americans Middle Champs M40

Had an early-ish start, although was glad I didn't pre-start in order to announce.

Early:
Strange first control, I've never seen anything like that before. Took it very careful to the first few controls to try to get into a flow.

Middle: tried to push the pace, if the course is giving me trail options, I should take them and push it. Pretty smooth. Was crazy lucky on 14 with a random rootstock. Got off my berring and about to panic when I spotted the flag.

Late:
This is where I started getting sloppy. Didn't really have a plan for the long leg to 15, got lucky finding it, but slowly. Not great through the final section, especially sloppy on 19 where I just kind of went in the direction and tailed a dude.

Ended up mid-pack at 54:06. No major issues, just not clean enough.

Great finish run in and really impressive arena.

I liked the area and the map.

But, it was chilly, where was an option to buy something warm to drink? Or food?

Run in the Westdale Trails. Ran into Turbo and friends and jumped into two loops with him.

Upper leg feels tight!
