DNC Birsemore
Location of my worst run on record - from the 6 days this year (194% of winning time).
Compared to that this was a great success!
Paid attention to compass most of the time but still lost discipline at times - usually when trying to rush the navigation due to pressure of approaching lights!
#5 Drifted west, corrected from man made object [20]
#6 Drifted east, corrected off small gully but then went searching on the ridge above the control [100]
#11 Drifted east, corrected from wall / ride junction [90]
#13 Skirted the hill which was ok (safer route in from wall), but then confused by crag facing upslope... Eventually realised what was going on having overshot [120]
#15 Rushing due to other lights again; left path too early [90]
Very pleasant outing - slightly better personal performance than some recent DNC forays but still beaten by many pesky juniors!
