Race Evaluation
CSU Training: Franklin Park

| 1. | I took the trail around to the right. | ||||||
| 2. | Straight. | ||||||
| 3. | I was planning to go right, but the cliff seemed closer to the road, so I went back down to the road and took the trail up through the zoo. | ||||||
| 4. | I went right around the stadium, managing to find a trail through the green. | ||||||
| 5. | +00:15 | Some guys at #4 asked what I was doing, so I took 10 seconds to tell them and suggest that they go find Ross to ask for a map, which they declined to do. Then I ran under the tunnel, which I think wasn't so good, and then found the cliff by the big road, passing S of it, and in to what I think was the control. I'm not totally sure though, since it seemed a little weird going to #6. | |||||
| 6. | +00:25 | Overshot the control, then got to the cliff that I'm pretty sure was the right one and then was directed down the hill to the flag by a couple of guys who were apparently smoking pot (I was breathing through my mouth, so I didn't notice). | |||||
| 7. | +01:00 | Went along the trails, but the indistinct trail that looked like it would aim you towards the control took me out to the big trail further E than I expected, so I ended up at 14 before realizing what was going on. Then I ran to #7 and expected it to be at the bottom of the cliff, so when I didn't see the flag I kept running, decided that no, it really was that cliff, and realized it was at the top. | |||||
| 8. | I probably could have gone straighter, but I followed the trail around the bend, then took the first indistinct trail and took the second left. | ||||||
| 9. | Went over the road instead of under. I think it was probably faster. | ||||||
| 10. | I took the big road S, then went N around the pond. | ||||||
| 11. | Went on the path to the right of the line. | ||||||
| 12. | +00:05 | I decided I should run around the golf course instead of cutting across. I'll give myself some time for that :) | |||||
| 13. | I went right around the green, then after the tunnel I took the trail all the way, though I was tempted to cut the corner. | ||||||
| 14. | Took the trail to the big trail, then straight from the junction. | ||||||
| F. | Went more or less straight, trying to find that indistinct trail leading away from the clearing. Didn't really find it, but hard to screw up at that point. |
