Event: NavDash 6 WA Sprint Championships UWA
 

State Sprint Champs at UWA. GPS 1.61kms. From the Start triangle an instant decision was required to take the right-hand (and shortest) route, I didn't see it so went left on what would have been the second shortest bearing left after the theatre, but stuffed it by turning too soon with a brain fade. Lost a minute to Sten so about 40 secs. 2 and 3 were easy, at 4 I didn't see the small path leading to the control and lost another 30 secs at least. another brain fade at 6 not reading the map and not looking ahead - searched too early when I could have easily spotted the flag - 30 secs, possibly more. All in all could have been 1 min/km faster which might be crucial with a couple of teenagers having very fast runs.

Course 1 at Sprint Champs, gps 2.86kms. Cruised around course 1, possibly a couple of route choice errors but nav was pretty straightforward.
