Autumn Series #1 (24/02/2019)

Vic Autumn Series #1 @ Bunjil - 1st
Feeling pretty wrecked at the end of three big weeks but aim was to make this a threshold effort so to push relatively hard. Lost confidence coming into one and stopped early (30" loss). Good from here to 6, moving well through the forest. Very green to 7 but managed to keep a feel for the vague contours and was ok. Less so on the way to 8 and was unsure coming into the control and ended up being too low and overshooting (60" loss). Small hesitation coming into 11 as the contours were shielded by some green (10"). Pushed hard to 12 but then the fatigue hit. In oxygen debt after climb into 12 and messed the start of 13, making a parallel error and trying to make things work. Ended up not being too bad of a route choice one I realised what i was doing but time was already lost (30-45"). From 13 home it was a physical struggle, falling/tripping over at 3-4 times, but maintained technique to not lose any time on mistakes.
