Way too many people at the track, had to zoom around from lane 8 to lane 4 and back again. At least 2 laps ended up being a bit over 400m 6x400: 94/91/98/95/96/95

Well I'm nothing if not consistent lol. This was also not a great run but wow it was such a pretty day out and the woods were soooo nice.
1-3. Smooth. Altho I should have contoured on 3, probably lost 20s from climbing. 4. The beginning of many errors. Parallel errored into the southernmost gully, had to go all the way around to hit 4. Abt 2 min lost. 5. Ugh. Overshot, misread the clues and thought this was at the bottom of a gully (it wasn't), had to climb back up. Again, probably 2-3 min lost. 6. Not bad just hella slow 11. Should have simplified this route. Ended up scrambling through the ridges slowly and not super accurately for the first 400ish meters. Way too much climb. Entering the control wasn't smooth, either. About 3 min lost here. 13. This was frustrating. Ended up 1 spur over to the south and had to sprint back to hit 13. 3 min lost. 16. Overshot, had to backtrack. 1 min lost. 20. Should have stayed high to avoid extra climb. 40s lost. 25. Not as confident as I should have been, took it a lot slower than necessary. 30s lost.
