Pre running the long US WC trial.
Early start in the morning. Took me a couple of controls to get on the map and adapt to the 1:15k (1st control too high, too low then too far...)
Knowing my physical constraints I took it rather easy right from the beginning. Unfortunately lost once more a hard contact lense after ca 1hr. Searched a bit and then decided that in such a nice and open forest and with my speed it should work to continue also without.
Took quite some time to approach some of the controls on the last loop in a more diffuse area from different angles. Sometimes deliberately, sometimes not.
A very enjoyable morning out in the forest on a nice course.
