O cup eliminator. somehow manged to miss the start by a little bit ( well actually was earlier then announced ). went out in a rush, superficially reading map- and paid the price 4-5 minutes at the first control. lost another 2 min on the first loop. its been a while since last eliminator i competed at. was not actually an eliminator. i was surprised to find after first stage that i am actually 15th- but nobody there ( last i remembered after 16th runner arrived was a minute break - then another mass- start. but getting old memory leaves me too- lol). anyway i start chasing more folks next 2 loops ( not that can chase anyone given my speed and injuries theses days). another small mistake on loop 2 - and from there my map reading skills came back- so end up catching more till the end.
great course- in a tough terrain-great fun enjoyable day outhere. not sure when i can fix my injuries to i can be able to enjoy again the sport- at a higher speed
