24c shoes: Salomon XA Pro 3D M+ 11.5

WRC 2014 with Dave

I will eventually measure the distance and write something about this but I am otherwise being subsumed or consumed by work.

24C/1510 points, not last, and good navigation at night. For our team, this was a really positive event!

Day 2 Classic Champs

A mess --- missed control 2 by 200 m. Saw it but also saw water, checked my clue sheet, no water?! Decided I was maybe not sure where I was and wandered a bit before going and punching C2, the water control.

Drifted more than 250 m E on control 4 (3 min). Rhetorically asked myself, I couldn't be that far off, could I? Answered, yes I could and relocated directly to the control but the route was aweful.

A late control, C10, I made a big parallel error. Drifted right crossing a low ridge that had mirrored hilltops. In retrospect, I passed by the wrong one into a complicated valley with small reentrants around the edges but I didn't read the directions of the reentrants well. Couldn't find the bag, and ultimately moved to a similar complicated valley with small reentrants next door. This was >10 min; huge and painful these days but not so obvious until I was sitting and relaxed after the run.

C11: a touch high (15 s error)
C12: missed just off the E edge of the circle (20 s mostly of slow movement)
C15: ran 60 m NNE to a different dot knoll, distracted by others (1 min)

Even with this, it wasn't a disaster. I still enjoyed all of the other legs and the open running.
