Ross Castle
Made a mess of number 1. Followed the small track and ended up too far, came back too far, and then got it. Silly start. At least 1 minute shipped, but closer to 2 I suspect
Route between 2-3 not great, bit rougher to get across to the other path than I expected. Took a direct enough route out to the track leaving 4, but better to get out than stay in around here. Colm as faster than me by 2 seconds, hmmm. 7 I stayed on the path, QR a bit off here. Marsh was dry getting out from 7.
10 I got nicely but others missed it. Worked off the hill beyond it. Control was on shortest cane possible! 13 came up sooner than I expected.
Missed the small path going in to 19, but not really time lost, but some hesitations at the beach afterwards figuring things out. After 18 calf started to be felt. That was annoying me since it was fine up until then.
Route from 20-21 didn't work out so well. Got stuck in some green, those small paths are now overgrown.
Started out feeling like I had some speed in my legs, a good feeling to have, once I didn't have last week in Spain. Lungs struggled a bit at times. And then calf started to hurt so kept pace under control for last few controls.
