Ely - Galoppen Wed, 28 July 2010
Results

    Was really great to get over 20 people - WAOC Galoppens must be getting famous as we had 
    one competitor from near London!
    
    I hope people enjoyed the extra challenge of the pairs and the open orienteering map 
    format. After some deliberation I decided to rule out all incorrect answers. The results 
    seem to indicate that strategy was just as important as speed, with some runners having 
    more to show for fewer controls, whilst others suffered with time penalties and non 
    scoring controls.  
    
    I had aimed to get people to all corners of the map and all controls were visited at 
    least once, with a slight bias towards heading south and westwards.  
    
    Finally, thanks to Jean for helping at the start.
    
    Please note: the next Galoppen will be on Coldhams Common on Wednesday 11 August.
