Street-O @ Napier Park

Peter G had set a tricky end-of-season run for us - the map was standard, but he'd made some blank bits and stuck a control in the middle. Without knowing exactly where the roads went, there was a bit of guesswork involved in deciding which way to get to it.

And if you didn't read the clue ("very large oak tree"), it was easy to run past the control and end up at a t-intersection you weren't expecting... at which point I ran back through the park and found the oak tree. *sigh* Extra mileage.



After getting messed up by #10, I completely missed #14 (blank spot on brain, not on map). Which all meant that I didn't think I had time for a few others nearby, and ended up coming in nearly 5 minutes early.

But I was actually running okay. I was a bit sluggish to start - still stiff from Saturday's effort - but I warmed up fairly quickly and was running with a high cadence and generally having a good time. Missing controls notwithstanding!

6.9 km in 6:14/km.
