John McLaren Park - The Two Towers (Stage Four/tournament final)
The championship heat consisted of Jerker, Eric, Joseph, Will H, Rex and myself. Naturally, Jerker got ahead quickly, although we all missed a chance to be in the lead when he made a mistake on 3 and we all followed him instead of actually reading the map. No one saw him again after that.
I stuck with the group, although began to drop a second or two per leg on Eric and Joseph by 11. I actually managed to punch 12 first after the leaders made a small error, but I promptly proceeded to run the wrong way by 90 degrees. By the time I figured out what the heck happened I had lost about two minutes and was out of the race.
