spiked:9/11c shoes: INOV8 Bare Grips
The Long at Creek. The scenery here is absolutely beautiful. We had frost this morning, but it warms up fast at altitude, so the temperature was almost perfect.
Going through the woods here is something akin to running through a field of pickup sticks. Lots of hopping individual down trees, or climbing over or around some piled up ones.
Overall, I was satisfied with my performance, except for a dumb, dumb, dumb mistake on 5. And I knew better, too, but spent 27 minutes on it, and had planned a different route choice, but then didn't do it. The only other control I didn't spike, I came out about twenty feet to the right, looked over, and there it was. Today was a lot of fun.
