SA sprint champs,

Pretty shitty area for a sprint, it was really just a short event.

It got quite interesting in the ruins, but besides that really boring.

Quite a bit of hesitations going to 1,2,3

Lost about 20seconds at four where I was too far to the north. I think the map is a bit wrong here.

6 was rough so choosing the right line was quite important, 9 I think I took the best route against the fence but then slowed down a lot after it by stopping at the wrong control and then not being sure of how high in the forest the control was. 16 was horrible, probably lost a min and a half there.19 was also difficult and i ran right past it, 20 secs again.

Still got the win tho :) I think most people had shitty runs.

Gauteng middle champs,

Really excited for this one, running in some nice technical forest before JWOC, and it turned out horribly.

spiked the first two, so feeling confident probably too confident, 3rd one i lost about 20 seconds, 4 and 5 were decent, 6 was really bad, Im not sure how I stuffed this one up, and I'm still not quite sure which boulder hill I was actually looking around. 8 I picked the wrong gap between the thicket hills. 9 lost time, ended up too far right. decent again up to 13, then my massive mistake was at 14. chose a solid route choice, going past the water point and paced it down the road, tried to use some thickets on the left to see where to enter the forest, ran around in the forest for 8 ins too long, just never got far enough over. eventually my dad led me into the control. the rest was also shit, trying to at least get a medal.
