O race 41:52 [3] 3.56 km (11:47 / km) +139m 9:51 / km
Back to reality - ACT Middle Distance Champs on Issacs Ridge - first time that both I and Liz have ran on this map - 4th in M65A (9 minutes down on NickD) and about a minute slower than Liz!. Blew 2 minutes on control 2 and another 2 minutes on 9. Both cases losing contact on 200 metre legs and pulling up short (first time) and below the control (second time). Also a bit too hesitant on some legs (e.g. 4 to 5 and 5 to 6 lost 1 minute on each with wide route choices - according to winsplits ) - was able to run longer legs OK tho. Plus fastest split on leg 10 to 11. Nice event - challenging but fair course and more importantly the body held up during both events this weekend.
