O race 52:41 [4] 6.4 km (8:14 / km) +132m 7:28 / km
Day 2 of QB3 - longer distance race north of Coffs by about 80KMs - spotted gum forest - spur gully with some erosion in water courses - grass was a bit long in some parts which slowed the running (fast walk was quicker on some slopes for me). Nailed all controls as not that technical - one route choice meant I went into water up to the knees after the heavy rain here last week end (around 400 mm). Happy with time given my lack of running training and very happy the leg held up. QB3 is based on cumulative times so after 2 days I was sitting 3rd in M60A and 26 seconds ahead of another guy that ran 4 minutes faster today - and about 1.5 minutes ahead of another fast runner. Was a bit over 4 minuted behind 2nd after 2 days. No pressure for day 3.
