Nice course, nice day - a little drizzle - and an OK performance. Not, however, a confidence-builder, since I had difficulty with route choice on the one long control, #7. I ignored trails (I know, I know) and went through some awful downfall areas (clearly marked on the map), added some unnecessary climb and lost about three minutes. This would have been enough to win the day, but nemesis Tony Federer beat me by under three minutes. Nevertheless, a second place in the NA's was not bad. However, the trouble with the long leg did NOT set me up for the next day.
