To start of the Long at Bishop Lake near Brighton, MI. Forgot to start my watch at start of trail, so another 150-200m not included.
Plus a jog back to the only portajohn which was ~120m back the road, and back to start.

Bishop Lake Long at US Nationals, brown A, 3.9kn/105m. Overcast and 35F.... I had enough warm clothes for running but couldn't make much sense of the map near 1 and 4 and spent the most time there. Leg to 8 I was refolding my 11x17" map so swung a bit off line; to 9 wasn't quite as planned so maybe not as efficient but track showed me going fairly straight so I'll take it. Popped out on road at the portajohn.
Exiting 9 I again wasn't efficient; should have headed NE to get on trail immediately but I angled farther NW. Just a bunch of errors. Well behind Janet (1st) and Linda who were near an hour. 3rd F65 (of 3). Probably near the bottom on Brown A.
