Red course at Pineridge (5.1k SL, 225m climb).
I had a bit of an advantage for this event, having spent many hours on the map vetting controls for the A-meet a month ago. Eight of the eleven controls on the course were used in the A-meet, although approaches for some of them were different. Lost about three minutes on the 5-6 leg, drifting left of my intended line and getting confused about which trails I was crossing. Saw a bag on a feature used in the A-meet but I didn't recognize it, otherwise my recovery would have been quicker. Caught up to Phil B on the way to #7 and we played the which-route-choice-is-better game for the rest of the course. About 50F and overcast so good for running.
Thanks to Phil H-T for setting the courses and to Walter Kersch for letting us use his land and building (with warm water and flush toilets!).

Skipped Pilates class to take advantage of a 70+ degree day to do some exterior painting which I had been procrastinating. Probably something beneficial in lots of trips up and down ladders.
