2nd place on 10mila!
My contribution was not much to celebrate but the team recovered great!
1st leg for me, quite tight in the start and a lot of people the first bit. Took the first control right on, and the second as well. There it felt like the first forking split up the field quite well. Saw some guys in front which I caught up to, from there I was close to the front to what I thought was the leading bunch (never saw Regborn get away).
Felt really good, and could go with the group and take my controls without any problems.
My group did a bad route choice to control 13 and also a small misstake on the control. Maybe got a little stressed there and also started to get tired. Lost focus when we passed the second marsh on the way to 15, thought that we passed much more to the east. But didn't get thing to match after that. Still was in the large group and really didn't trust myself before it was too late. Went way too far on the leg and had turned back. Not fun to turn back in the complete dark, met Halden and GMOK on the way to the control but otherwise no people.
Managed to keep the things together for the rest of the course without any larger misstakes, but the speed was not good enough when I was alone. So a total time loss of about 5min (over 9 min to Regborn's insane run).
Nice to see the team recover after my start and Albin's finish on the last leg was something for the books, legendary to just run away!
