Leg 1 of WA Relays at JFNP. Was with Nick D until 9 - he was running faster and getting to the circles before me, but then stopping so I beat him into 4, 7 and 9. But then I made a bad decision to go down to a track from 9, and messed up the climb back - possibly going slightly off the map - and losing 3 minutes. Lost a minute each at 14 and 15 by not taking bearings, and finished 4th on the leg, about 6 mins down.

Leg 2 at the Relays, GPS 2.64kms. Liked thei leg better with the start off to the East. Took the wide track option to 4, which was probably slower. Had one mistake, running to the weir between 8 and 9, instead of the bridge, which cost me a minute.
Duncan had pulled us into the lead, and I was still leading at the handover to the last leg. Unfortunately our less experienced 4th leg, on his first ever hard course, missed a control, without which we would have been in the top 3 mix.
