Classic Devon OC event. Brown 7.6km 360m, well that's what it said, but a mix up with scales produced a 50% error which meant it was 11.4km 360m. It felt a long time, but I was glad I didn't take my watch as I think I would have packed it in thinking I was the worse orienteer ever rather than just a slow orienteer which I can accept!! Anyway a time of 1:56:14 wasn't to bad for what should have been a M35L course and after a busy couple of days.
Another excellent night event from QO. This was the second time on this format and it is a really good way of getting an hours event on to a relatively small area. All you have to do is choose a colour to start on then figure out when to switch, once you change you can't go back. Oh and make sure you get back in time!! I managed 5.8km in 59:58 so a close shave.
