This morning was hella fun. Paired up with Ali to do a route choice exercise which was fast and furious (the total time doesn't seem to bear this out as we stopped at each control). The navigation was a lot simpler but I was attacking the terrain and confidently heading into the sites this time. I was especially proud of my execution of number 7. That was awesome. Ali saw a beaver but I picked the wrong route for that one. Bah.

Run then jog back to the Boat Ramp with Ali, via the beaver dam. No beavers though.

Another control pick and tons better this time. Felt fluid, and confident, and my misses were small wavers, not massive lost wanderings. I swallowed a fly that crawled around the back of my throat for ages and nearly made me throw up though. Eurgh.

Really fancied checking out Big Island so collected in the final pick. Totally whacked in the heat by now but it was a beautiful bit of wood, and despite fatigue was still navigating pretty well. Brilliant weekend, cool people, loads of fun. Can't wait for the next one!
