Warts night race
Lateish note: please make sure you use the UPPER car park, as in the route below, so as not to frighten away other pub users. Also the landlord will be doing chip butties, first-come, first-served (that rules me out then, JD).
On Wednesday 27th October I am putting on a warts night race from the Strines pub. There will now be a mass start at 6:45. Teams should have a minimum of 2 people and obviously need to be able to navigate themselves around, or escape from, this night orienteering course & are expected to carry standard FRA kit and some form of emergency safety bag sufficient for individuals & the team. As ever there is no support out there and so teams need to be responsible for themselves & to be able to cope with whatever happens – emergency or otherwise. The run will take “average” runners 1.75 hours. Teams need to get a good mix of navigational skills & experience to be able to cope with a toughish course. Teams should register with myself or John Dalton.
