It’s been so nice to have someone consistent to train with. On this track, my main focus was spreading out the food drop pattern a bit more than usual. As both Judi and MAM mentioned in my blog feedback, this track was double-laid. Most of last year I double-laid tracks regularly, but once I started seeing improvement this year, I drifted away from doing it as often. This track was a good reminder of why it’s useful.
