Race Evaluation
OOC B-meet: Long Advanced

| 1. | Knowing the trails but having never seen the new map put me in a bad spot, apparently. I added more than 1000m to the first control running around in circles and had the worst first split. | ||||||
| 2. | I followed ditch and trail to beaver dam at lake and then made my way on curvy trail but held up too soon. I ended up 150m W of control before getting straight. | ||||||
| 3. | Got my act together, N to trail hugging lake, then dropped S to parallel trail when closest, then dropped S again to next parallel trail and cross one-way MTB boardwalk | ||||||
| 4. | drifted right and hit 5 before 4 but SI prevents cheating. met same MTBers going both ways. | ||||||
| 5. | should have been quick to 5 since I'd already visited | ||||||
| 6. | Back past 3, then followed trail E until it bent back W and then began overland trail hopping. SA shows error which must only be the time in target circle hopping around re-entrants. | ||||||
| 7. | I'd seen Kathy all along, at 5, at 6, but I went straight E to beaver dam between ponds, then trail hugging lake and still met Kathy at trail T intersection. | ||||||
| 8. | Let compass-checking runner in front lead me to trail jct and then to control's hill but he went right on by, for some reason. | ||||||
| 9. | I stopped for a drink after punching 8. I'd thought it strange to also see water at control 2 but then it took me over 40 minutes to get to that water stop. | ||||||
| 10. | |||||||
| 11. | |||||||
| 12. | I'd recognized control from other map that I'd seen seeking my first control. Left trail too early as did many others making for long run through forest. | ||||||
| 13. | Kathy & other headed for road beyond fence while I experimented with matching their speed in forest. I failed miserably but it was worth a try. | ||||||
