Event: O-Cup #1 - Kickoff (Kelso)
 

hihihi, I was doing absolutly great ... until i hit the fence. not a wall, a fence.

down the hill to CP3 (lots of smarter people took the path)
4-5-6-7-a sinch.
8.... river crossing (1) ... hit a Fence... crossback river (2).
I think i see a hole in the fence. River crossing (3). At-fence: No hole.
Cross back to river (4).
Might be able to pass under fence ? cross-river (5) Back to fence: I am too big (and no "drink me potion" available)

Back to river (6) .... By then i just ran right down the center of the river (no trees to hinder my super fast aqua-gliding)

F%^#?ng-fence, finally stopped (many people laughing at me at this point). Some fellow-funrunner gives me a high five. and then ... up and up and up the hill, we go.
helped on by an unknown woman in front of me. She pushed me on with mental vibes (i did not walk more only cause she did not walk).

As a "getting to the top" treat, there was little-babie poking out of daddie's jacket to say hello too (very funny sight).

First box, had trouble in one spot (... okay okay... a few spots..)
Coming out of box1, I had a panick attack: counting and double counting controls and trying to figure out which ones i did or not. Actually out right stopped for this.
:)
9-10 okay. Box2... i vowed to pay attention to which controls i do or not.
Then, promtly forget to do this, which = panick attack no.2 (plus some controls did not beep, or flash lights at me), I had increasing (increasing) fears of misspunching.

For 3 controls, I actually counted to 10-slowly hoping for a beep or a flash of light to squash my quelms, but nooo ... ahhhhh, the fear the fear....

Then... I absolutely LOVED 11-12-13!!! oh, the up and down and around!
heyyy!! loved it!!!
I could have ran faster down 14. But, i super belted the tunnel, that was fun!
and some nice guy had to tell me about 3 or 4 times that the finish was to my right... before I realised he was right.
(I was bolting for the cookie station, and had not realised the finish was before)
ha!
... then proceeded to eat cookies :)
(actually only ate one, but dreamed of eating six)... and chatting and couchycouuing the babies and little ones.

And I was told I had not misspunched!!! what else does one want?
