Went out easy and kept this up. Never was that tired, just ultra-lazy on the hills. Spent the course complaining about the poor map and planning :)
1-2 - Spikes
3 - Hit the right re-entrant but was too low so it looked odd. Related it to a further on re-entrant to only backtrack and the re-backtrack to the right one!
4 - Wasn't sure when to leave road as veg south of road was badly mapped. Came off too early and hit clearings up the slope.
5 - Stuck in very deep water/thick veg at marsh
9 - Too low
13 - In the wrong place by one crag
14 - The green above the control was one massive clearing !!
16 - After very slow running by the river in previous controls I decided to get away. Apparently the running at the river improved after all (:
17 - Bad map around this area. Quarry not relating to thickets at all
18 - Too low, barely a re-entrant really
19 - Lazy up the hill
Finish - Just ran and realised I had to navigate about halfway there :P
Bad run, mistakes were just stupid. On a good day, am sure I could have come close to 10 minutes better. But I think the map was very, very shoddy
