Red at Locker Lake
Ran aggressively, but not clean. Mistakes to #1 (3 min to Mark, ouch!), #10 (1 min to Mark), #14 (40s to Mark and also 10 to Michelle, who generally had a rocking race, awesome!!!).
#1 was just a bit hidden, and I wasn't running 100% in touch because it was sooo open and clear that I was lazy. Burnt.
#10 was about the same way, although I was trying a bit harder to stay in touch I would say.
#14 I just didn't want the answer to be stay on the trail, so I tried something else which didn't work and got more off the line than I intended, actually....
#15 I was also too lazy to just go over the hill which apparently won the day.
So, lessons: take trails when they *are* helpful silly! It's not necessarily true that the course setter designs the course to always avoid trails. Probably impossible and not even a truly desired feature, gotta mix it up! And I shouldn't be lazy about going up hills. I'm a strong runner and should use that! (Esp. as contours are 3m...)

Orange with tired legs. Good competition from Andrew Metz on it, who was close on most of the legs!

Control pickup with Tom. Surprised to have problems finding #11, boo!!
Went up wrong spur, got major tangled in thorns, actually bit the bushes to extract myself, never done that before!
