Race Evaluation
OOC Wesley Clover Parks Classic Event: LA
boyle
| 1. | I started slow and crossed the creek parallel to the ditch, eventually realising I had to back across creek. | ||||||
| 2. | trail run | ||||||
| 3. | I considered jumping fence to bike path but then just used ski trail. | ||||||
| 4. | |||||||
| 5. | There was a trail up slope I could/should have used. | ||||||
| 6. | First of three legs through this section of map. I took things slow, taking off my one torso layer and packing it. | ||||||
| 7. | nice long trail run | ||||||
| 8. | on off trail | ||||||
| 9. | I had trouble getting knee down slope but I did use lowland as much as possible. | ||||||
| 10. | I climbed straight away but started seeking way too early. | ||||||
| 11. | Apparently this was my best leg. I stayed high on nasty footing and now knew who to watch for ahead. | ||||||
| 12. | I picked up a place for best position in race but I couldn't hold placing. | ||||||
| 13. | Through the centre again, I drifted right and started looking way too early. Other runner was my motivation to keep going. | ||||||
| 14. | I headed E to rail parallel trails and got to control same time as other runner going overland. | ||||||
| 15. | S on trail, then W to campground but messed up by road with fence through it, overshot control, backtracked and arrived same time as other runner. | ||||||
| 16. | Straight run, brought over other runner. | ||||||
| 17. | Nature pushed me north to stay dry and had to swing back S to a control I had already glimpsed twice earlier in course. | ||||||
| 18. | long trail run | ||||||
| 19. | I hit this well enough to lose other runner until after finish. Slowed for my only calories in race. | ||||||
| 20. | took out cell phone | ||||||
| 21. | let M know I had only 5 controls left | ||||||
| 22. | got messed around by double track to sod house not yet on map | ||||||
| 23. | |||||||
| 24. | footing across open field was just plain nasty. | ||||||
| 25. | |||||||
