Lakes Day Three, Grizedale NW
word was the forest was rough and unpleasant, but I enjoyed it, certainly an advantage not be starting early, again my pace varied, but subjectively I think I might have been running not far below yesterday's middle distance pace (which means I was running fast enough yesterday)

#1 using the edge would've provided a more certain attack point, very hesitant when I reached the ridge and challenged by the task of finding a pit among the windblow [20]
#3 slow to commit to route, possibly better to go out to track [20]
#5 erred on safe side aiming to hit ride early [20]
#6 navigated most of the way to #10 (because the line from 10-11 was bent just outside the circle) and ran into trouble on the way, finding myself the wrong side of the high fence, two high fences in fact [3.5mins]
#8 lost concentration when passed my Matthew Speake and noticed the M21L control, reading it as a hill not a dot knoll [40]
#9 good line but hesitant [15]
#15 contoured but should have gone straight, found myself with a climb at the end (which I walked) [30]
#17 stayed high out of the control, evidently not the quickest line [15]
#21 indecisive, almost changed my route, then saw a gap in the trees early and went for it, knowing it would lead me to the clearing left of the control, slow [40]
#23 better to followed ridge than re-entrant, found myself at the back of the little hill with a fallen tree between me and the control [40]

according to Winsplits (using a factor of 0.1) I lost 8.5mins, some of that was variations in pace, I think

7th, 18mins behind Max Cole! 10 behind JL
