Race Evaluation
Gay City: Blue
randy
| 1. | +04:42 | 4:42 to copy the map; 2:20 on the leg, apparently it is an acquired skill. Like J-J, I had to scuffle around for a pen that worked, but at least I did not have to queue up waiting for the guy in front of me to finish whilst the clock was running, like I did last time ... | |||||
| 2. | trail by the river. Banged my bad knee pretty good, last time took me 6 months to fully recover -- this time seems to be superficial, (we hope) | ||||||
| 3. | |||||||
| 4. | |||||||
| 5. | |||||||
| 6. | |||||||
| 7. | |||||||
| 8. | over, specifiically over the right form line. We like climbing extra lines, its good training ... | ||||||
| 9. | +02:00 | hit the marsh at an awkward spot and had to go around to the right. I was just thinking to myself how easy it seemed as I make a two minute mistake. To add injury to injury, I pick up my second one as I cut my leg on a tree that appears cut by beavers. I didn't realise how sharp they cut those things. I also sort of bungled the attack of the thing, or, more accurately, found it ok without being in contact | |||||
| 10. | Never saw any of the rock features on the way to the circle, but did see flag. Better to be lucky than good | ||||||
| 11. | |||||||
| 12. | +00:30 | ran off the map | |||||
| 13. | straight | ||||||
| 14. | +00:20 | I always boom short legs. Again to the right. I wonder if my compass is still on Kazakhstan time ... | |||||
| 15. | Straight on a beautiful deer trail that was going in the right direction, then to the right of the long marsh, indistinct trail, then in. This was the first leg I really felt in sync | ||||||
| 16. | straight. The "safe" route on the trail just seemed too expensive | ||||||
| 17. | +00:30 | I boomed this one to the left (my normal hook). Good to know that my compass is back to normal. | |||||
| 18. | straight, on that trail that sort of died | ||||||
