shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 12
Summer Series Sprint at Charles Sturt Uni. Nice course around the CSU map, a rare full SI event for us, although should be more in the future when we get more units.
Minor hickup just after the start as the first control was wrongly placed. Being one of the first starters, I ran back to the start to advise the organiser who asked me to relocate it. Ran back and it was gone! Briohny, who started just after me and ran a different route, had already moved it! I have adjusted my time by about 2.5 mins to compensate!
Nice flow through the buildings for the first few but poor route choice to 5 cost me about 30 seconds then back on track with no major errors. Very humid and a few spots of rain. I forgot my hat and my eyes were soon stinging from sweat!
