Black Jack Sprint

A big thank you to Ian Johnson and helpers for course setting and the cake on Saturday. The usual 5 courses were on offer, however with a twist. Course 1 had 16 controls but by doing all the odds first in order then the evens, or by the reverse, or…in fact there were 4 choices! Then Course 2 also had 16 controls to be done in increasing order or reverse. Course 3 was 16 controls in any order, Course 4 was any 12 controls and Course 5 – any 6 controls. The variety gave every one the opportunity to sprint around in otherwise flattish terrain in an almost unlimited number of options. The biggest competition being between several Juniors in Course 2! Full report on the web soon. See you next week at Wildflower Drive. BTW Happy Birthday Ian!

    What about Matt Doyle, did he run, I see that Steve was there, so thought Matt may have had a trot as well
