Basically this was an 80km line course with 3 controls (yep, they used SI for timing. Only one person lost their SI stick on the run). Distance estimates vary between 79 and 82km so the distances below are not precise.
Here are my splits for the mathematically minded (sorry the table didn't work out too well); but if you’ve never walked the track the place names won’t mean much to you. If you have, you will know and love them:

My full writeup is 4 pages long, which is a lot to read in black and white on AP, so I am going to email it to everyone who I think will be interested, and if I don't have your email address, feel free to ask me for a copy...
