This was a bit synonym/antonym-y, I sort of had to flip tactics a few times to get there.

Took a while to get off the high tepids.

That came as a surprise! I only had two greens with the highest being 540 and was just getting tepids, then I guessed 973 which led me straight to the target on my next go!

I only had one totally unrelated low green - I have no idea what made me put that word. It's not one I regularly use. Weird!

It took ages to get going on a route and then that turned out to be a bit of a tangent.
