Race Evaluation
West Point A-Meet: Classic: Green Y

| 1. | couldn't face the climb right out of the start, so went down the trail to the reentrant before climbing. Recognized the extra climb, but somehow it was easier psychically | ||||||
| 2. | Straight to first wall, then downhill under the green, past the reentrant at bottom of second wall and had to climb a line at the end. John Campbell passed here | ||||||
| 3. | A little left of line to avoid climbing over spur, then up the trail segment a bit and climbed early, approaching level and from the west | ||||||
| 4. | right of the cliffs and up | ||||||
| 5. | down the reentrant and timed it right to come up just before and could see the knoll from a distance. A little satisfaction seeing a guy studying his map just S of knoll. | ||||||
| 6. | good control for me, fast down the spur and picked up the trail, saw the boulder from the top of the knoll and straight for it. | ||||||
| 7. | easy. Kind of slow, but how much time can I have lost? | ||||||
| 8. | trail. When I cut off my foot hit a stick and I went down hard among the rocks. Lucky I didn't open my forehead. As it was I was pretty dazed and had to walk for a while. Once I recovered enough, navigation was easy and fun. Up the broad saddle, up the hill left of cliffs and straight in, noticing there was a flag close to my right, but not fooled by it. | ||||||
| 9. | Very nice leg. Looked for reentrant coming up and hooked right down it. | ||||||
| 10. | A little adjustment as I hit the reentrant from the side and had to climb down a cliff. Otherwise fine. | ||||||
| 11. | Down the spur. Got passed by Jon Torrance, who was not going all that fast. | ||||||
| 12. | Hit the trail, and then hit stream too far right so had to go down a bit and get around some green | ||||||
| 13. | Easy, although I saw the flag on the boulder with the wall as backdrop, and our flag was hidden behind a tree. I wasn't fooled by it. | ||||||
| 14. | Easy | ||||||
| 15. | Easy | ||||||
| 16. | A little difficulty finding a way out of 15 without going through water, then up the road and over the spur, then straight for the hill. | ||||||
| 17. | Went S out and skirted a bunch of green, then it looked so awful that I went back all the way to the yellow to get up the hill and in. | ||||||
| 18. | Now I'm looking at my watch and desperate to get under an hour. | ||||||
| F. | Only 22 seconds left and running as hard as I can. |
