Street-O @ Heyington Heights

Always a tricky little map in the area around Scotch College and the Yarra; tonight's was no exception. I spent a lot of time trying to figure out the best way to collect 11 controls... and I still didn't get it right, after finding myself on a track alongside the rail line with no way out except forward. I ended up with 12 controls (because I couldn't run past the last one without punching!).

I felt like I was running okay - certainly not setting the world alight, but something better than a trudge. I passed Pete and Margi (they skipped one of my early controls - much better idea than what I did), but was a bit disconcerted to see that Debbie was in ahead of me and looking very fresh and relaxed. Turned out she had only collected 10 controls - whoops, a DNF - and she only realised when no one else from Course C was back yet.
