WA Long Distance Champs
I entered M21 expecting this to be a NOL event, but as it turned out it wasn't.
The drive in was rough and I had to be very careful with the brand new rental car that was not supposed to go "off-road".
Then the rain came, and it was heavy.
Mason and Torren were fantastic to even make it to the start. The Blue start was in the middle of an exposed paddock and the rain was coming down sideways.
I was soaked and cold and had about 90 minutes to wait until my start. My fingers started going numb, so I had to hop in the car and turn the heater on.
Once I got racing in the forest the weather was not bad at all. I started well and passed Blair just before #3. I ran reasonably well, but didn't have a lot of pace in the second half of the course. I had a small mistake at #11 which was a small boulder on the side of a hill. This seemed to be quite high on the hill side.
Perhaps I should have gone left to 15. I went right and lost around 30 seconds.
