RMOC Rainbow Falls - Red Course
1:31:15; 5.64mi; +1243ft; 13/16 OA
Rainbow Falls Red. A good race for me. Mistakes on #8 (8-10min, stupid),
#4 (3-4min, went past it, saw 2 controls that weren't mine), bad route
to #6 (1-2min). I walked a lot more than I would have liked to since it
was hot and I was getting a blister on my right big toe and just feeling
generally wimpy about tripping on stuff. I probably would have just
made more navigation mistakes if I ran more anyway since when I run hard
I make more mistakes near the end and I didn't today.
Yep, looking at the results/graph 4,6,8 killed me and I had the most
lost time. Rest was great by my standards. According to the graph, for
the whole cluster of people within ~10min ahead of me, 4,6,8 were the
only ones they beat me on by anything more than seconds (1,2 and 12 were
not spectacular either). I'm still standing by my route for 12 and
blaming my blister, heat, laziness for why that was so slow.
