HOC Regional Event - Callow Hill North
I believe I would have last run here in BOC 1985. Was a bit worried jogging to start, as forest was extremely brambly.... but the long distance to start/finish was for a reason and most of the woods were lovely and runnable.
Still too many mistakes - but a bit better
No. 1 - drifted left and not careful enough with compass - 1 min
No.7 - from path junction attack point, aimed off to small gully and turned left, but control was further right - 2.5 mins (a lot of people seem to have lost time here)
No. 10 - silly mistake - missed 1st path junction and then got confused by paths and ended up going north - 2 mins
Lost a bit of time on last control, where tried to go straight through light green, which was fine for first part of leg, but then turned into wall of brambles, so had to skirt back north. 1 min
3 fastest legs - all involving steepish uphill and/or longish path runs!
Probably slow running speed and a few of the small paths were pretty treacherous
