| 1. | 318m | 2:30 | 2 | +1 | 1% | 100.2 | 7:51 | 318m | 2:30 | 2 | +1 | 1% | 7:51 | I had watched the others starting before me so I knew the general direction that I would be heading. I didn't feel like going on the trail which I probably should've taken to be cautious, but I ran at a decent enough pace for me to slowly get into the map and saw someone come out of the control so I hit it smoothly. Next time I want to work on making a clear attackpoint to my first control | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 2. | 395m | 3:25 | 4 | +24 | 13% | 88.8 | 8:38 | 713m | 5:55 | 3 | +25 | 8% | 8:17 | I didn't have a clear plan so I start to go up the hill then turned around and went down to more open woods. I should've stuck with my plan, this turnaround cost me 30sec. I hit the control smoothly, and just handrailed to the right of the spur. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 3. | 514m | 3:09 | 1 | -25 | -12% | 113.4 | 6:07 | 1227m | 9:04 | 1 | -4 | -1% | 7:23 | Headed around the first swamp running hard with my head up to find a clear path to run along, then went along the next swamp and up the far reenetrant. I could have improved this by not running so far north while on the hillside before the second swamp. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 4. | 172m | 2:14 | 8 | +47 | 54% | 79.1 | 12:59 | 1399m | 11:18 | 1 | -12 | -2% | 8:04 | Held a hard compass bearing but I was worried that I would mess up so I went fairly cautiously. I didn't take a close enough look at what the control was on and once I came up to the cliff that was right before it I almost turned back, but luckly chose to go right down. For this I should've run a little harder and farther with my head up looking around, but staying in contact with the map. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 5. | 1519m | 14:12 | 4 | +2:45 | 24% | 86.0 | 1:12 | 9:20 | 2918m | 25:30 | 4 | +2:05 | 9% | 8:44 | My original plan was to stay along side of the hill but I never figured out a clear checkpoint so I go worried about half way through and went to my backup plan and use the lower hills as my handrail and cut up after passing 10 on the path. I could've fixed this by looking for clear featured along the route to 5 like the field and swamp, and cliff. Going up to 5 I didn't have a clear attackpoint which worried me. I used the swamp by the stream and held a compass bearing while heading up. I went up on the left side of the spur and didn't see the control, so I turned left and after about a 1min mistake went back and went over the spur. To fix this I need to have more confidence in my gut and close clear attackpoint and maybe a better catching feature. | |||||||||||||||||||
| 6. | 603m | 6:46 | 14 | +2:05 | 44% | 75.0 | 1:21 | 11:13 | 3521m | 32:16 | 4 | +4:07 | 15% | 9:09 | I didn't have a clear plan for this, I was just navigating my way along the line and I got confused for where I was once I got into the rocky area. I headed left instead of right and that cost me 3min. When going into technical areas like that I need to have a clear plan with good catching features, and if I am having troubles choosing a plan I can simply over shoot to the right or left to a clear point then once in the area correct and run along. | |||||||||||||||||||
| 7. | 267m | 1:33 | 1 | -24 | -21% | 117.9 | 5:48 | 3788m | 33:49 | 3 | +3:24 | 11% | 8:55 | Ran down with my head checking off the hill to the left and ran down the renetrant that 7 was in | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 8. | 161m | 1:26 | 1 | -3 | -3% | 103.9 | 8:54 | 3949m | 35:15 | 3 | +3:05 | 10% | 8:55 | Had my head up and saw the control from far away, but was going to keep a hard compass bearing to it | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 9. | 204m | 5:37 | 40 | +4:01 | 251% | 29.0 | 3:52 | 27:31 | 4153m | 40:52 | 4 | +6:58 | 21% | 9:50 | Thought that I was running to the control I had seen which going to 5(which was actually 10) and in an eager attitude to make up time I barely looked at the map until I hit a control that was on the spur past 9. I then realized my mistake and had to relocate to the cliffs but I didn't do a good job slowing down to use the cliffs to send me to the control. The largest mistake here was not looking at my map and being over confident, I need to always have a plan and a clear attackpoint to use. | |||||||||||||||||||
| 10. | 342m | 2:19 | 1 | -23 | -14% | 112.2 | 6:46 | 4495m | 43:11 | 4 | +6:30 | 18% | 9:36 | I ran along the swamp then up to the control | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 11. | 917m | 6:02 | 1 | -4 | -1% | 105.7 | 6:34 | 5412m | 49:13 | 4 | +5:43 | 13% | 9:05 | Down to the path then to the right of all three swamps and ran up the hill and then found the right hilltop to run down to the control on. I an happy with my attackpoint that I chose because it allowed me to navigate easily, but I should run around the right side of the cliffs because it would've been smoother and a better handrail | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 12. | 309m | 2:57 | 2 | +39 | 28% | 93.2 | 9:32 | 5721m | 52:10 | 4 | +6:11 | 13% | 9:07 | I we slowly vearing too far right and that added about 20sec to my time but it was smooth coming into 12 | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 13. | 808m | 7:06 | 3 | +1:08 | 19% | 93.9 | 8:47 | 6529m | 59:16 | 4 | +6:44 | 13% | 9:04 | Again I was pushing myself too far right and I was completely aware of it but continue to the road then slowly powered my way up the trail(I was exhausted). When I cut off I went too far right and got confused then slowly pushed my way left to the control. When tired I need to do a better job working with the compass because it is that one thing that I can trust when I'm not thinking straight. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 14. | 243m | 2:19 | 9 | +33 | 31% | 79.6 | 9:32 | 6772m | 1:01:35 | 3 | +7:15 | 13% | 9:05 | I ran too far left and hit the lower trail then corrected and went to the boulder. For this I should've used the larger boulder in the middle of 13-14 as a checkpoint | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 15. | 368m | 3:42 | 25 | +1:35 | 75% | 61.6 | 1:16 | 10:03 | 7140m | 1:05:17 | 3 | +8:29 | 15% | 9:08 | Ran along the trail but cut off too early and ran to a control about 100m north of 15 and messed around for a minute till I corrected. The problem was that I knew the entire time that I was veering off but didn't correct it. Next time I need to take a second and make sure to correct my compass bearings as soon as I see an error | |||||||||||||||||||
| 16. | 255m | 1:20 | 1 | -4 | -5% | 104.6 | 5:13 | 7395m | 1:06:37 | 3 | +7:58 | 14% | 9:00 | Hard to the trail but a poor compass bearing, then corrected once I chose me spot to head into the forest and had me head up and say the control then ran to it | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 17. | 182m | 1:06 | 1 | -5 | -7% | 109.1 | 6:02 | 7577m | 1:07:43 | 3 | +7:41 | 13% | 8:56 | Crossed the bridge then powered up the hill | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 18. | 153m | 30 | 2 | +3 | 11% | 96.7 | 3:16 | 7730m | 1:08:13 | 3 | +7:37 | 13% | 8:49 | Anton beat me... | ||||||||||||||||||||
