I thought it was interesting that they were one after the other just

That is a good point, and interesting. I'm not sure if they're related, and maybe Conor would have a better idea of whether he was distracted by my mistake or not, but somehow I doubt it, Conor said he hadn't really paid much attention while I ran 13 after I just missed it.
I think the mistakes were actually kind of different, although they look pretty similar on the map. But yeah, it is kind of interesting, you would think it might make you alert watching the other person make a mistake. But possibly we both just kind of lost concentration a bit there.

I actually think Quickroute can conceal some mistakes when you look back. On my way to 6, I almost nailed it, but I didn't, and I lost probably like 15secs just because I didn't realise it should be further left, but you hardly notice this mistake in Quickroute, or at least it looks almost irrelevent. Similarly, Conor made a small mistake on the way to 16, just stopped short and was maybe a little confused, again only about 15secs, but on Quickroute you don't see that at all...
