| 1. | 290m | 2:56 | 1 | 0% | 10:06 | 290m | 2:56 | 1 | 0% | 10:06 | Ran straight down N-S marsh at ditch system in slight reentrant...control appeared before me! Very positive feeling to start race | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2. | 430m | 5:01 | 1 | 0% | 30 | 11:40 | 720m | 7:57 | 1 | 0% | 11:02 | Tried to stay south of rootstocks but pace count from large trail ran out before I reached control...investigated several other unmapped rootstocks until I saw correct double-rootstock and ran to it. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3. | 405m | 8:16 | 1 | 0% | 4:00 | 20:24 | 1125m | 16:13 | 1 | 0% | 14:24 | Worst leg. Ran around east side of large marsh, but then failed to see trail, and went too far west, where I investigated western marsh system. Finally came back to large marsh and tried again ... successfully. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| 4. | 435m | 5:38 | 1 | 0% | 12:57 | 1560m | 21:51 | 1 | 0% | 14:00 | Navigated across marshes to NE tip. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 5. | 410m | 4:01 | 1 | 0% | 9:47 | 1970m | 25:52 | 1 | 0% | 13:07 | Followed large trail south then east; came off trail bend to spike control | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 6. | 235m | 2:35 | 1 | 0% | 10:59 | 2205m | 28:27 | 1 | 0% | 12:54 | Ran to hillside, then east along it til glimpse of control above me. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 7. | 225m | 2:32 | 1 | 0% | 11:15 | 2430m | 30:59 | 1 | 0% | 12:45 | To trail to east, then south, off trail junction to control...easy. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 8. | 420m | 6:53 | 1 | 0% | 3:00 | 16:23 | 2850m | 37:52 | 1 | 0% | 13:17 | Bad route choice: Ran across parking and through open area into thick green marsh. Persevered but missed control feature to south. Looped back around to north and luckily saw reentrant system in dark woods. Should have followed trail to north as Peter did. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| 9. | 210m | 4:49 | 1 | 0% | 2:30 | 22:56 | 3060m | 42:41 | 1 | 0% | 13:56 | Tried to run directly at rootstock; should have run south to ditch, then west to marsh as an attack point...which I eventually did | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| 10. | 210m | 2:50 | 1 | 0% | 13:29 | 3270m | 45:31 | 1 | 0% | 13:55 | Took more time crossing marsh than it should have. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 11. | 180m | 1:38 | 1 | 0% | 9:04 | 3450m | 47:09 | 1 | 0% | 13:40 | Straight to road, then south to marsh. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 12. | 150m | 1:26 | 1 | 0% | 28 | 9:33 | 3600m | 48:35 | 1 | 0% | 13:29 | Tried to run directly at Finish; missed trail, got hung up in green, fell, lost glasses, crawled out and staggered to finish, where finish box was not yet in position (I was prerunning course) | ||||||||||||||||||||||
