GNC Day 3 - Classic - 7.0 km (65 m)
Today's terrain was much flatter than yesterday. The woods were also more open. Made for a very fast course. Went quite well overall. I only had a couple of minor mistakes.
1 - Too much hesitation for how easy this leg was.
2 - Cut through the woods to get to a different trail. Might have been faster to just take the trail around?
6 - Got pushed a little west by some bushes as I was exiting the road. Landed in a group of ditches just west of the one that I wanted. I had a hard time seeing them under the line, so took a bit to figure it out.
14 - Very slightly overran the control.
I caught Greg G. at 15 and we were back and forth through the rest of the course. Fun to have someone to race. Very happy with the pace I was able to hold through this course. Nice to see my training paying off!
