Sub ideal warm-up, running from car to start just in time to be called into pre-start

Middle distance at Waitarere. Possibly the most technical course I've ever run here with some fairly intense things going on in some of the control circles - good work Bill! Slow (especially on the first leg - recovering from the "warm-up" run!) but accurate for most of the course - possibly a minute at most lost on 3 trying to figure out which of the multiple small hills and depressions were which, but otherwise clean to 12. Just off to one side, in the 50:50 situation of just off to which side. Was with P at the time and when she decided to go one way I kinda followed. Wrong time to do so! Then next control headed along a parallel dune system just to the south that I was fitting quite nicely to the one I should've been on. Small loss on the last control, funelling into the wrong depression. Can probably just see 50 minutes, which in the context of how fit I wasn't feeling would be a pretty good time.
