5 hours biking plus the hour run - WOW!
We all have made 180 errors several times. It seems inevitable and then eventually the "habit" is broken (more honestly, rarer). The only advice besides 'be alert' is that all writing on the map, including control numbers, are oriented the same way. (Doesn't help as much if you happen to be attacking 6 or 9!)
I too was tempted by clockwise to allow more options in middle and at end of course, but then I realized that 4 controls in under 6 minutes was just too much to pass up. Of course, "10 points per control" rule affects that decision - no big pointers in far west.
