"Pierce's Creek", Paddys River, ACT. M50/Course 2: 19km, +600m, 18c. 8th/13 (60:19 behind Craig Steffens). Most time ever spent on a single activity. Most metres climbed. Almost no energy after #13 (2h mark). Lots of walking on the steep inclines when there was little grip. 17°C. TE 3.8. 25psi.
#1/2/3/4 - All OK. #5 - Long up hill slog. #6 - Chose single track straight descent in the middle of the leg to shorten distance. Encountered lots of jumps so I walked/slid for about 400m. #7 - OK. #8 - Wrong way around loop (lost 2'). #9 - Another long uphill slog. #10 - OK. #11 - Long downhill leg before a traverse. #12 - Uphill again. #13 - Traverse then a medium downhill section. #14 - Up, slow, exhausted now. #15 - Down. #16 - Missed turn and ended up near #17. Decided to approach control from the top of the single track rather than the bottom. #17 - OK. #18 - Uphill on narrow sandy track. #F - Quicker to run. Presentations all finished before I got to download. Best leg: #1 (3rd/13). Best pos: 3rd/13 (#1).

"East Kowen Forest" ACT. M50/Course 2: 15km, 12c. MP on #7 - plotted a route from #6 to #8. Good choices between wide trails and fast single tracks. Enjoyed second half from #8-F. 18°C. TE 3.7. 25psi.
First starter at 1200. #1 - two unnecessary gate climbs (lost 1'). #2 - single track option at the end to avoid some climb. #3 - Up wide track then cutting across yellow to meet zig-zag descent. #4 - 90° error mid-leg followed wrong track too far downhill (-7'). #5 - Downhill leg with necessary gate climb. #6 - Pivot control, same as #1. #7 - Omitted in error. #8 - Good fast downhill leg; pity it was all for nought. #9/10/11/12/F - No problems, with some nice single tracks for #9/11. Best leg: #3 (5th/11). Best pos: 9th/11 (#3).
