| 1. | 175m | 36 | 13 | +9 | 33% | 77.8 | 3:25 | 175m | 36 | 13 | +9 | 33% | 3:25 | From watching others start and the warm-up around the parking lot, I knew where the control was. I didn't run hard so as to locate #1 on the map. I didn't see it until leaving the control. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 2. | 195m | 1:03 | 10 | +10 | 19% | 84.1 | 5 | 5:23 | 370m | 1:39 | 10 | +19 | 24% | 4:27 | Around the back side of the building, up a little too early, back down and up again. | |||||||||||||||||||
| 3. | 270m | 1:32 | 8 | +11 | 14% | 89.5 | 5:40 | 640m | 3:11 | 10 | +27 | 16% | 4:58 | Low route to the right, then S-curve L and R again. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 4. | 175m | 2:04 | 12 | +1:02 | 100% | 54.8 | 20 | 32 | 11:48 | 815m | 5:15 | 10 | +1:20 | 34% | 6:26 | Back the way I came passing Eric Weyan going the other way and planning to cut through the woods--thought he was making a mistake? On the trail, the scale threw me. I passed it, cut in before the second bend where a recreational orienteer was; back to the trail, back up and in. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 5. | 300m | 2:35 | 10 | +38 | 32% | 77.6 | 8:36 | 1115m | 7:50 | 11 | +1:56 | 33% | 7:01 | Trails to the left all the way there. A slight hesitation in the circle, not having seen it at first. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 6. | 50m | 1:30 | 17 | +1:05 | 260% | 32.6 | 30 | 50 | 30:00 | 1165m | 9:20 | 13 | +2:54 | 45% | 8:00 | Back the way I came--whoops--wrong way. Back again, across the stream to the trail/road, left and in. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 7. | 335m | 3:15 | 13 | +1:21 | 71% | 61.7 | 30 | 33 | 9:42 | 1500m | 12:35 | 14 | +4:00 | 47% | 8:23 | Around to the right on trails, I got to the fenced area S of the control and then realized I'd passed where I wanted to cut in when Peggy was going the other way. I should have kept going around but got confused. Instead I cut back behind Peggy cutting through to the field and bit further east of the control than I thought I would. Slowly, I fumbled in. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 8. | 270m | 2:41 | 10 | +38 | 31% | 79.5 | 9:56 | 1770m | 15:16 | 12 | +4:22 | 40% | 8:37 | Around to the N, past the fenced area on the trail, cut through to the next trail, then angle in. I didn't realize until I'd gotten there that the rock was on the other side of the stream. No time lost but in retrospect this was a slow way of getting there. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 9. | 110m | 3:04 | 16 | +2:26 | 384% | 22.5 | 2:00 | 2:08 | 27:52 | 1880m | 18:20 | 14 | +6:48 | 59% | 9:45 | Around to the left on what seemed to be a deer trail. I came to the area too high. However, seeing others behind me drew me up further to some visible rocks. I realized this to be the cluster on the spur but even then I came down badly and went SW instead of SE. I was loath to drop far enough but finally did when all else failed. As I angle in, I can see that Tom O. has caught me and Ted Good is approaching too. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 10. | 240m | 2:13 | 12 | +37 | 39% | 74.4 | 15 | 9:14 | 2120m | 20:33 | 13 | +7:16 | 55% | 9:41 | Not wanting this to turn into another chase Ted Good event the rest of the way in, I caught-up as we crossed the stream to the road. I cut left then right and angled up. Ted stayed on the trail longer. I got a step on him but taking the next road to the garden area, I got confused by 90 degrees and started hunting S of the control. Ted and Tom both passed. | |||||||||||||||||||
| 11. | 235m | 1:21 | 4 | +11 | 16% | 90.5 | 5:44 | 2355m | 21:54 | 13 | +7:15 | 49% | 9:17 | Leaving #10, Ted seemed to want to stay on the road instead of angling up. Later he explained that like me, he was having trouble distinguishing controus from route lines--he was headed toward #12. I angled up and got ahead of both Ted and Tom. Just reading the center of the circle, I went right side around the ruin and in. | ||||||||||||||||||||
| 12. | 145m | 1:50 | 17 | +1:09 | 168% | 37.9 | 40 | 54 | 12:38 | 2500m | 23:44 | 13 | +8:23 | 55% | 9:29 | Pressure of staying ahead got the better of me. I didn't read the route well and trotted off down the road. To make matters worse, after turning right at the intersection, I cut in to the right too soon ending-up in a horseshoe canyon of thorns. Backing out, to the open, I made the proper cut to the control. | ||||||||||||||||||
| 13. | 70m | 17 | 11 | +5 | 42% | 72.5 | 3 | 4:02 | 2570m | 24:01 | 13 | +8:28 | 54% | 9:20 | Not much motivation to run hard and a line of people were ahead of me anyway. | |||||||||||||||||||
