Gränsjakten1 H60 (01.07.2017)

Lost 3-5 sec on #1 due to not reading the descriptions properly, searched around the hedge.

OK to #2, 3 & 4, lead the race on 3 & 4.

Worst possible route to #5: It would have been better to turn back and to north of the houses, then up the middle road, but when I took the right-hand route I also misread the map to show a path around the houses near the end. Instead I had to climb up and down some very steep slabs. 25-30 s lost.

Pure running to #6 & 7, lost a couple of seconds taking the wrong path towards #8.

Good routes to #9 & 10 where I got my last split win.

I messed up again around #11: First I stopped on the road and decided that I didn't dare cut downhill through the vegetation since I was running in shorts, my alternative must have been a lot slower (EDIT: I only lost 6s to the best split so I should have won this one), then leaving the control the first path junction didn't look the way I thought it should from the map so I made a detour, and then another detour as I hit the paved roads again. I must have been running quite fast here because I was only 19 s behind.

OK from that point on, I could have taken the pedestrian tunnel back to #14 but when the map showed that it was legal to go straight across the street I did so. I did lose 3-4 s on #14 because I didn't trust my punching and had to go back and do it once more.

Average heart rate was 166 which I think is the highest since my ankle operation 3 years ago.
