Event: DVOA Brandywine Creek State Park - Mid Atlantic Championships
 

5.84 on a 5.1k green - 114%
kept good map contact and just made it under an hour. This was my 3rd time here and I learned to keep focused.
Overshot 4 and 5 a bit and slow going to 8. I wanted to get to the high trail but my body kept rejecting the idea and ran on-contour.
Very happy with using 7 as a marker to number 4 and looking back to see the image so I knew what I would be running to from #6.
Similar feeling getting to 13 using another control not far off the trail.
Overall feeling better and more confident about my route choices. Now if I were only 20 years younger :)

3.07k on a 2.7km advanced (leg 3 of relay) - 114%
fairly clean run just not much power left. Caught Francis H. leaving #3 and barely passed him by 4. Very impressed with how quick he was in the open woods. Caught Corinne M. here too and we went back and fourth through #8. I somehow had enough left to stay in front to her to the finish.
Close race to the finish with a QOC'er (I think) didn't quite get him but I was coming from behind.

Green - Splits

Setting control pins for 90% of the courses and verifying control position for Delmont event next week.

Wow. This is a first. AP has me losing no time on Sundays run. I have never seen that on my results before... of course, I know I lost time :)
