Race Evaluation

FLO/US Team Fundraiser, Day 2: Blue WRE

tdgood

1. Straight. Started too fast without really thinking. Saw control and felt somewhat lucky. Decided to start concentrating better.
2. Slightly left of line to avoid green. Over hill. This time looking for both palmetto and vegetation area.
3. Straight, over hill, left of depression and to control.
4. Straight. Pace counting from trail. Little bit off to left on final approach but made quick correction.
5. just run.
6. +00:30Run back the way we just came in. Figure I would run hard and be able to see the clearing. Suprised at the dogleg control. Go about 150 meters towards control 7 when I realize I wasn't just at control 6. Oh boy. All confidence gone on this control. Angle back towards six but now it isn't smooth. Aproach shakily through green.
7. More careful this time so moving slower. I spiked the control but the control was more hidden than expected.
8. Try to speed back up. Am off to the left Figure to just run hard to the trail and relocate by trail. Right where I want to me. Go in proper distance and cut into green in likely area that looks passable. Spike the control. Ah what could be sweeter than this.
9. +00:15Guy in Canadian Jersey ahead of me. Hill is very indistinct and I have a tough time being in correct part of it. I should have been right on top. Hit the ditch and have to turn left.
10. Straight. Catch guy Canadian type jersey. He is drinking directly from the jug and I yell at him to use a cup. Needless to say I don't take water (I wouldn't have anyway but especially after I see somedrinking directly from the jug.
11. Straight line. Not much of a ditch. Good thing I saw the control from aways off.
12. +00:10Over the first long hill, along the side of the second. See control in reentrant to the right and cut over to ours. I was still a little off.
13. Straight. Wasn't really sure which green area it would be.
14. straight.
15. +00:20I got a little bit off to the left and didn't even see the hill through the green. I bounded off the indistinct traiil and had to come back.
16. straight
F. Tried to run hard down the sandy trail.
