Race Evaluation
West Point A-Meet: Sprint O/Br/G
Charlie
| 1. | Pretty easy. Saw the trailers and wound through. I recall a little trouble leaning over something to try to get the punch in. | ||||||
| 2. | Straight, and a bit of trouble with the footing going over the rocks. A little right of line might have been faster. | ||||||
| 3. | Cut down little paved area and around fenced area, because I was concerned about getting hung up crossing the pipe. As it turned out that wouldn't have been a problem, so lost a bit taking the longer route. | ||||||
| 4. | Didn't know what the wavy gravel roads were, so didn't head for them. Instead fought through the barberry. Yuck. Probably cost 20 seconds or so. | ||||||
| 5. | Uphill and bearing off just a bit to hit the trail first and then right in. | ||||||
| 6. | Saw somebody ahead going down to the right and back up and around. Glad I avoided that and just went a bit left and straight in. | ||||||
| 7. | Got a little thrown off by the gravel paths and stopped short. Looked right and saw the road. I was just above control, so ok. | ||||||
| 8. | Down gravel road to corner, then past #3 and basically straight line. Knew the distance was good when I was even with #2. | ||||||
| 9. | Tired now, and moving slowly. | ||||||
| 10. | Glad I knew about this one from watching earlier runners. Just motored right on over to it. | ||||||
| 11. | +01:40 | Mistake! Following somebody who turned out to be a red course guy and blew right by it. Had to relocate and look for the wall I had already passed. | |||||
| 12. | Tired | ||||||
| 13. | Aimed for yellow gap on hlll across field, but then followed path W to gravel trail and had to stop to reconsider for a second. No problem with control, but just a pretty crummy route. | ||||||
| 14. | Back up to road and past red control on tree, through buildings and in. Just slow. | ||||||
| 15. | Left of line coming in from the W. Had to cross the stone wall, which was slower than coming in from the SW. | ||||||
| 16. | No problem. counted off the smaller building on the way in. | ||||||
