Awesome runnable forest and not too wet. Had an ok run, technically I know the area well and run fast & relocate was often good enough but I got a bit sloppy in the second half and made some silly mistakes. Physically coped with the distance well and still fairly strong at the end. No issues despite recent niggles.
Mistakes ~2:30min
(5)(0:15) - Rough bearing and not reading detail in the circle
(9)(0:15) - Confused by unmapped paths
