DFOK Summer Evening Events 2 – Bostall Heath and Woods – Weds 19 August 2009-08-20
This was the second in the series of 4 with another excellent turnout
– I am always impressed by those who turn up by bike or train
– if only I had the same motivation now I run (jog) M70!! But
thank you.
Bostall runnability in places offers a little more route choice and
some were caught out at some surprising controls – e.g. control 9
(long) and 8/15. I was surprised at those runners on the long course
who went the direct route to No 8 – I had to turn around when
surveying the control sites in that area!
Most runners enjoyed the courses though, on reflection, I could have
made the Short course a little easier – will do better at
Shooters for the last event.
Thanks to Andrew and Philip for bringing in most of the controls and I
can confirm that the ones I brought in this morning (Thurs) were still
in situ. Thanks, again, to Carol for helping to put out controls and do
the entries and timing for the evening.
Next week sees us just over the hill in Lesnes Abbey Woods – final details below.
