Weren't we lucky with the weather! After the damp forecast I was quite relieved to see the sunshine and no rain until my journey home. It probably meant, however, that there were more local visitors to the woods adding to the vehicles in the car park.
John and Jenny always seem able to get the best courses that any area can offer and many of you came back saying how you had enjoyed the challenges which had been set. John and Jenny would have been happy to not have had to overcome the challenge and worries caused by some early mindless vandals who displaced a number of controls in the early morning but, thankfully, these were all sorted in time for the runners to start as planned.
It was lovely to see a number of new faces and family groups enjoying their outings. Hopefully your appetite will have been whetted and we shall see you in the woods at future events.
Enormous thanks are due to the band of helpers without whom the event would not have happened, both those who play their part before the day as well as those who help before or after running. So, three cheers for those who fought off dogs to get there, gave up Mother's Day celebrations or forsook the comforts of their bed on a Sunday morning.
We tried to set interesting legs across the map on the more challenging courses and not simply get distance by running people into all four corners.
For the White and Yellow courses we wanted to avoid using the larger bridle tracks and instead use the more interesting network of small paths. Controls were carefully placed to guide competitors onto their next path. Even at this level competitors should use their compass to orientate their map to make sure they are going in the correct direction.
We had some early morning panics when some controls put out at 7.00am had disappeared by 7.30am. Fortunately they were recovered having been thrown or placed just out of sight nearby.
Thanks to those who gave us encouraging comments.
