shoes: Hoka Rapa Nui Tarmac 3rd blue
With Shane. First time in Hoka's - worked out ok, laces a bit loose.
We had a chance at winning, coming within 50 pts of Ricky and Dave. Lost about 10mins at about 935pm at 70 and found it eventually. Can't expect too much here since Dave and Ricky had similar trouble and didn't find it.
We found all controls and dropped 3 from our plan. Quite efficient overall, and especially compared to the winners who did 71k vs our 62k. Shane wasn't feeling well from about 9hr mark, but he kept moving at a good pace.
Great area, good hills and good amount of bush and tricky stuff for what was mostly farmland. Well set course - no dominant way around for us.
