Race Evaluation
UNO Boulder Dash: Red day 1
Cristina
| 1. | Used the first leg to check out the routes to the second one. Didn't make up my mind right away. | ||||||
| 2. | +01:00 | Decided to go left to evaluate the rough open. Got to the area and it looked passable enough, so I took the "short cut". It was very slow. Not very happy with the choice. Attacked the control from the trail junction, no problems there. | |||||
| 3. | Stayed just right of the swamp and again attacked from the trail, up the reentrant. Feeling more confident, but I could have moved faster. | ||||||
| 4. | +01:00 | Didn't intend to go all the way up to the trail, but the contours were deceiving. Also, better AP - still dorked it up, went to far down the trail before cutting in. Makes sense on the these to cut in a bit earlier and parallel. | |||||
| 5. | Picked the trail route to the left. The huge features leading into the control from that side made it easier, but again I could have been more aggressive. | ||||||
| 6. | Aimed off of the field, could have had a better rough compass/straight line. | ||||||
| 7. | Straight up the road, no issues. | ||||||
| 8. | Up the trails then up the reentrant. Pace as a backup. Could have cut the corner here a bit more - slogging uphill anyway. | ||||||
| 9. | Did not have an instant idea of where to go. Tumbled down the hill to the trail, attacked from the junction, but it was a bit far to be solid. Sort of stumbled into it. | ||||||
| 10. | +01:00 | Again, no good idea for execution. Went around the green, which doesn't make much sense for a straight route. Considered going around once at the trail, and in retrospect that would have been better. As it was I had to stop and read way too often. | |||||
| 11. | +01:00 | Just a straight shot, but got suckered off by another control. Low point of the course, luckily there wasn't too much left to bunk up. | |||||
| 12. | +00:30 | Out the trail and then careful across the swamp, aiming left to contour across the hill. Didn't think I had a great idea of where I was once I got there and went by it. | |||||
| 13. | Just a trail run but really low on energy at this point. Hard to even run. | ||||||
