Event: OCIN Ox Bow County Park
 

"Long" course at OxBow County Park. Made the big mistake of trying to go through the "seasonal marsh" on the way to control 1; probably got more than halfway distance-wise, but it was getting deeper and deeper; turned back and took the trail around. That mistake cost me a chance to beat Mintore, who ended up edging me out by a minute and change. Mostly pretty clean after that, except for getting confused going into and out of the last control - might have lost another minute there. The disc golf area was a bit trickier than it looked on the map-it definitely paid off to be a little slower and more careful navigating thru that area!

yard and garden: chainsaw, loppers, raking, wheelbarrow.

Scenic "Trail".
When I pulled into the parking lot, the Franklin County HS Cross Country team was there and I didn't want to run with so many people, so I drove around to the Garr Hill end and ran from there. A couple hundred yards from the gate, I realized that I hadn't started my watch, so I didn't get a time for the first half mile up the BIG hill. So total time is estimated. 44:46 for 4.5, but I'd guess that first half mile was over 6... uphill and slow.

Miles, starting 0.5 from the north end: 10:36,10:15, 10:10, 9:35.
4:10 for the downhill half-mile at the end.

yard and garden. Chainsaw, loppers, and hauling branches.

Miles: 10:16, 10:24, 10:30. moderately hilly.
