Fun to be on a blue course. A pretty good run with one major route choice error and one miss. (I think. I have to grab the map to be sure.)
I got caught by Ian after my route choice error (3-4). Then I ran with him for about 3 controls, then we took different routes to a couple controls but got there at the same time. Then I made a mistake on a control, but he made a bigger one on the same control. (10 I think). Then I never saw him again. When I got to the finish I had to ask if he had already finished because I had no idea if he was in front of or behind me.
The cool part was the way intensity spiked while we were running together. It increased the speed I was running and that increased the possibility of making mistakes, which I made but was able to recover from. It was great training.
