Event: QOC Little Bennett Day-O
 

QOC Little Bennett Green. Yikes, I ran off without my brain. I was confused and error-prone the whole way through. The conditions were somewhat difficult -- 22 degrees with some wind, a drift of light snow on frozen ground -- but after the first few controls I felt comfortable enough. But for whatever reason I couldn't focus on the map and couldn't keep a plan in my head. Let's hope for better performance in Georgia next week.

Back out again to pick up controls. I cleaned up the water stop near the trail and left the trash bag and extra water at the trail junction, to grab and run back in after I had picked up the 8 controls on the other side of the trail. Came back out with the 8 controls, but there was no trash bag. Did I really leave it here? Is there another trail junction? WTF? It turned out Vido had come through a few minutes before me, seen it there, and carried it back in.
