My circles must be smaller, did a 5-mile race this morning and collected 127 circles already.
My QM was two laps hence only 87 circles

I know one line where I took the wrong fork and ended up sliding most of the way down. Not sure it was worth 6 circles though.
Yes, I don't think I've ever seen that last path down from the railway line to the finish as muddy as that. Even just 2 weeks ago it was nothing like that.

What determines the density of the circles? The circles in the picture above overlap the ones to the north and south and nearly touch the ones to the east and west. The circles where I typically train are for more spread out than this. I checked my tracks from when I was in Costa Rica a few years ago and they overlap north/south but there are bigger gaps east/west. I thought perhaps it had to do with latitude, but New York City is south of Vatican City and the circles don't overlap there.

It does look latitude related comparing my circles from 57.5 °N and 1.3°S. Assuming the circles remain the same size as the pics are not on the same scale.

I'd never noticed that before (well, not much reason to I suppose).
I can't help with the answer. But my circles in Hawaii overlap, whereas Iceland they're seem so far apart. Nothing else to compare whether it's just a latitude thing or whether longitude also plays a part.
I know the Conquercise "squares" similar change size both in height and width , so guessing it's similar to that.
