Middle (Blue) @ Kloofendal. Nice to be out in CC land. I've had problems being too aggressive in this area before, so focused on making good decisions & route choices. Only major issue was going to #6 where I struggled to make out the long cliff above the control. Ended drifting too far west. Dropped to the path below my control & found it from there. Should have been more aggressive with the path as an obvious catching feature.
Otherwise a pretty clean run, just need to work on the fitness.
(According to the splits, I made a mistake to #2, even though I had the fastest split. It seems that the decision to go right & around was the wrong route-choice - should have gone more direct?)
