Organiser's Comments

Thanks for braving the elements and helping make this event worthwhile. We were very pleased with the turnout considering the weather!

Despite the somewhat soggy description sheets that most of you (miraculously) managed to complete in the rain and bring back in one piece (or one lump anyway), we have been able to decipher these, and results are as attached.

The score course seemed to be about as difficult as intended, but the Line-O courses proved trickier than expected. In retrospect, we gave you too much choice - it would have been interesting to see how the score runners would have fared on the Line-O! Also, in retrospect, it would have been fairer if one or two of the trickier score controls had been worth more points.

The map is in the process of being updated and has definitely improved thanks to being able to compare with Google Earth, but there are still some distinctive trees on the map that seem to have meandered across the field and in some cases lost their distinction. Score course runners would be oblivious to this, but for the Line-O types, we hope these imperfections didn't spoil your run.

Peter, Sue and Clare Woods
