Decided to do the harder courses as they were short and I figured I could just do one or two if I got tired.

Pretty happy with my run overall. Managed to keep contact most of the time. Lost it down the bottom and overshot 4 which took me 5 minutes or so to get contact back and hit the control. Otherwise plain sailing.

Ran into Niels at the start who offered to guide me around B. I was able to keep up pretty well on the flat. I would guess we were running 9 or 10 minute miles which I can sustain for quite a while on asphalt. As soon as the ground got overgrown and up or down hill, he was in a different class. Even with Niels doing all the navigating, I still was not able to keep up. After we split at 2, I stayed in contact for a couple of controls but my knee flared up around 6 or 7. Leaving 8 I got completely lost too far North in almost unpassable terrain. Probably lost 15 minutes getting from 8 home.

When I did get back, Niels had already finished course C. Way too go Niels. I have quite a bit of fitness to gain before I can keep up. I'll work on it.

I considered not going out on C as my knee was giving me significant discomfort but I figured I could go slow or walk. I did this and was very pleased with my contact which I maintained pretty much throughout. Took the chance on the stream being passable east of 8 which paid off and got me the fastest split. Hobbled home singing for glory.
