1. | My group was Scott, Bill and Sergey. I was last getting to the area of the control, but since I had visited it in each of the prior rounds, I knew where it was and got there first, as the others were to the right. However, this was only worth about 4 seconds. | ||||||
2. | I guess I was just moving slowly, and maybe running a little extra distance to try to stay on trails. Well behind the others. Scott was in sight, but well ahead. | ||||||
3. | On trail to clear area N of control, Scott still in sight, getting a few seconds closer to him. | ||||||
4. | Straight | ||||||
5. | In a big crowd, including J-J, through SW-NE parking lot, cutting between hills to yellow. Scott in sight, but can't catch him. | ||||||
6. | Following a big crowd, including Vlad. Cut corner of the trail and climbed, coming in high. Others took the trail around. | ||||||
7. | Trying to hang on. Jeff Saeger passed me. | ||||||
8. | Following Jeff, at a distance. | ||||||
9. | Right option, which is shorter, and I think most people took it. Up the marshy reentrant to the marsh. Flag was further W than I was expecting it, so hesitated a moment. All alone here (for a change). | ||||||
10. | Past pavilion and in. At map exchange I couldn't seem to figure out which way was up, and was very slow leaving (even though there were plenty of people ahead). | ||||||
11. | Out to the parking lot and along edge to the boulder, out of contact with the others. | ||||||
12. | Walking some, climbed hill to W thinking it was on top, before realizing it was down at the rock by the yellow. | ||||||
13. | Around green to the left, had to work my way around a bit. | ||||||
14. | Further than I thought - all the way down by the water. | ||||||
15. | Ross passed me. | ||||||
16. | Joe passed me, but I was moving fast here and just behind Ross and Joe | ||||||
F. | Sprinting now, I was catching up to Joe. He reacted because he was afraid it was Jon Torrance coming, and I backed off a step. Not far behind Scott and Bill, but never saw Bill after #2, and hadn't seen Scott since #6. |
