Rivermead Golf Course Night-O
Long - 19 controls 4.5 km set by Gord Hunter on his new map
GPS starts at first control...added ~200 m for first leg
Generally conservative running in the first half
#3 - didn't follow my route plan to the left of the lake near 8-9...went to the left...just plain scared stupid by the long line (which if I would have thought about it was only ~600 m)...the advantage was it helped me be the fastest on leg 4
#9 - in hind sight I realize I cut in too close to the water...in the woods (which I would have called very green not light green) couldn't figure out my error so I pulled out relocated and re attacked from the other side of the pond...stupid waste of time ...now I see the uncrossable marsh symbol west of the pond...I think the smaller marsh symbol with the black line would have been clearer for me on the map...my bad I didn't read the control description well or look closely enough on the map but was the control really at the foot of spur?...live and learn
#10 - bad route and messy climb out of the green...thought it would be easier than the way I came into the vines...no
#15 -thought I was being clever running between the paths to beat Steve...should have just stayed on the trail out of 14 like he did and just run fast... I veered right without thinking, saw 16 and keyed off it to 15...needless to say that's why I was the fastest for 16

17-18-19 I was happy with but just ran slow to the finish :(
Overall : Great Fun!...These night-o's are interesting...love the golf course...
Thanks Gord, Bill A and Bill M and Rivermead
