Hope everyone enjoyed their runs today.  It was great to see plenty of team spirit on show.  A huge thank you to Paul Bradbury for Organising, Colin Lynch for planning and Brian Slater for controlling.  Thank you also to all the other members of SYO who voluteered on the day.

Individual results, splits and Routegadget are available on the links above (There was a problem during the upload so the link takes you to most of the courses but for any missing they are in the next event down).  Overall team results and counters are below.  Final ranking points available Thursday; results reloaded Wednesday to correct a wrong membership number on Green Women.

Planners Comments

I hope you all enjoyed your runs in Canklow Woods.  I am glad the weather stayed dry particularly as prior to the event the woods were already as muddy as I have ever seen them.

Due to the small size of the area I wished to keep the start and finish as close to the entry point to the woods as possible.  I needed to balance this with using the quarries which are the most interesting part of the area.  Apologies if the courses were on the short side although I wished to avoid excessive climb with such a large slope making up most of the woods.

Apologies to three early runners who lost time due to control 78 being incorrectly placed by me on an unmapped platform.  Having looked at the team scoring we are confident that this did not impact the either the Compass Sport Cup or Trophy final scores.  The runners involved are being contacted and I hope it did not spoil their enjoyment too much.

Thank you to Dave, Pete and Chas for producing the new map and updating it when requested.  Thanks to Paul for organising and to Pete for running the SI.  Thanks to Pauline, Bill, Tim and Pete for helping put out and collect the controls.  Thanks to Brian for his intelligent positive controlling.  Most importantly thanks to all of you for attending the event.
