Cracking day out as per.
At CP8 I was within a minute or so of Neil Talbot, but then shanked it good and proper and lost 35mins on CP9, dropping too low on the contour around Blisco. Admittedly I eventually lost impetus somewhat.

With the predominance of 're-entrants' it was definitely a navigation trial, with plenty of route choice joined by tricky, technical terrain in the area surrounding the control. Had there been clag I dare say some would still out there.

Hats off to Scoffer for 2nd place, he was climbing with me near the end but managed to not stuff it up!
