Those brown lines are Contours-lots of them. After a 1.3 km walk to the start ( with 120 m of climb!) The extra 165 m over the course (plus more I'm sure) was a bit of a killer. Both Trev and I finished in the bottom third of our fields, but we are still in the running with our slower but careful courses.
Trev did a slightly longer course today and performed slightly better running the longer course length which he has mostly avoided in the last few years. His recent fitness improvement put him in good stead.
I had the long walk to the start which meant that I hardly saw any finishers before heading for my start, and we had to rush off to get showered and get to meeting this afternoon , so you don't get many pictures today.
What is here is outlying of the sledge where we have 3 runners who all,came in in quick succession in the middle of the field. Andrew Slattery was so hard on Tyson's heels that I missed taking his picture (1 second between them today), and Andrew Kennedy just a few minutes in front . Lachlan Hallett is winning this course at the moment, but is insisting he is Top End, not SA.
The kids had an interesting string course complete with SI and being managed by about a 10 year old boy!
Patrick thought the splits tasted good.
