Event: Tamar Triple Long and Middle
 

Braunton Burrows Long

Enjoyable challenging O. Especially enjoyed southern section with more subtle dunes - emerging through undergrowth to find the flag exactly where expected on a couple of legs! Tired dramatically after #20 (if not before!) Preceding night spent in tent with heavy rain, wind and lightning did not afford best preparation / much sleep!

#1 Difficult to get into map immediately - hesitant [20]
#2 Still struggling to match up vegetation and contours [45]
#4 Got to vicinity and rcro helpfullyhighlighted flag.
#5 Caught Lucy Butt, was concerned I wouldn't be able to get away...
#8 Very vague area - missed east [30]
#11 Stuck in undergrowth north of fence then slightly too far east after crossing fence [40]
#12 Stated diverting to southern route after spotting small hill ahead (already tiring!) but fortunately reverted to straight route [20]
#14 Not the best line for undergrowth then hesitant in circle as depression seemed further than expected [20]
#16 Stopped for a wee! [20]
#21 Lost confidence in position when extra path appeared. Then roundabout attack due to undergrowth [45]
#24 Trying to avoid small hills too much! [40]
Then just slow until the end...

Relatively good result :)

Exeter University

Fairly interesting area and course.
Generally ok, if steady. Very warm!

Lost a small amount trying to go as straight as possible (#14, #24).
Lost a little more time towards the end on #25 being too careful to avoid a trap [40]
