Teering race (Easter) 44:43 [4] **** 6.49 km (6:53 / km) +160m 6:08 / km
spiked:11/14c weight:75.5kg shoes: VJ Bold
Tundarri, Bri Glen. Day 2, M55, 5th.
A good start with the fastest split (2:23 on around a 500m leg). However, slow through the creek after that, with a definite wobble on 2 (-15 secs), losing about a minute on Key/Lawford over the next 6 controls. Then the first major route choice and I chose wrong by going straight line. I think right was faster - 10 contours up and 7 down less, but 300m extra. Lost 1:30 on K/L here so maybe 1 minute error? Slow on 8 and then the next route choice; straight again, wrong again. Could have avoided 5 contours up/down by going left an extra 100m (-30 secs). Went up the creek to 11, losing a bit more time (maybe 10 secs). Wayward to 12, hit the flag on the creek bend to the south (-15 secs). Wayward again on 14, had mistakenly thought the last control was different for several courses, when in fact it was the same and hung high (-10 secs).
So 2 route choices and 3 wobbles cost about 3:20 - still way off K/L who did 38.

Teering race (Easter) 39:45 [3] 5.6 km (7:06 / km) +225m 5:55 / km
shoes: VJ Bold
Easter Day 1, Wonna Creek, Bri Glen, M55, 3rd. Bad preparation - no GPS, no gaiters, no tape for laces, no description holder (safety pinned to front imstead).
Slow start up hill. Should have avoided rocky ridge to 4 - either left or right would have been quicker. Bad route choices to 5 and 6 - should have used the big, blue highway. Pretty clean through the last few and set up my podium finish overall.
