I didn't really remember what this bit of the map was until i picked up today's map at the start. A little "Oh Shit" came over me when i remembered how much trouble i had previously in this area. Was a lot better navigationally today in this area, though my fatigue and generall slowness shone true with every other competitor on the course beating me. I would have moved up about 3 places though if i didn't stuff up #3 where John and Simon passed me - i shot off over the wrong saddle and missed the control by a good 200m. I had to help out my old man at the top of a hill where he had no idea where he was.... Everyone did pretty well today and i only was last by a few seconds as it turns out.
