Maybe there's lessons to be learned on this loop for better navigating later laps but this sounds like the course is winning this year.

Slow loop one + cold and fog for loops 4 and 5 suggests this could well be a year where the course wins

Do we have the first inkling that 5 finishers was too many? Was one book particularly hard to find? So many questions to be answered. Slowly …

Thinking the same thing. 5 finishers last year was (too?) huge.

Ouch!!

Well…that’s not great. I’d be curious to know what the course changes from last year were like. That’s pushing 10 hours for a daylight loop 1 💀

An hour extra per loop…not looking good for finishers. But it’s still early.

Who are they? What do they look like? Do they come in peace?

Must be harder than last year....

It’s warmer than last year…might be playing a part 😬

This bodes badly. These extra times compound. Could be a result of route changes that had rat jaw once on CC and twice on CCW last year? Warmth a benefit. Any degree of dryer ground is a massive benefit on the rocky climbs.

How is the weather forecast looking?
