spiked:25/32c
Wheaton stumble goat. Did not really follow anyone in the first 2 windows except for the start to 1. I was slow making decisions and went my own way. I wasn't running fast enough to pass anyone on the trails or grass, and went slow up hills. I noticed only Zac was keeping up at my speed but we separated a few times. Before and during windows 2 and 3, I see Ted and try to keep him in sight, but we went in different orders, so I go mostly on my own, except for a big train going to window 3. I had to walk a bit going to Window 4, but Ted and Dan are nearby. I start to follow them in Window 4 in a sequence with extra climb. We separate and I seem to finish first and pull ahead running by the lake by myself. I got lost just before Window 5 when I ran away from the train tracks too fast in the field looking for a trail. After bashing through the woods back onto train tracks, Dan catches up and I follow him to Window 5, but he soon disappears. I finish the last window alone but see Zac close by so sprint extra fast to the finish.
