I hope you all enjoyed the varied terrain of Calke, and appreciated the ancient

bit.
The disappearance of one fence shortly before the event was
an unwelcome surprise on Saturday. The tape replacement obviously caused some
consternation for some runners. Unfortunately, as the
As ever, it was interesting to stand in the terrain and watch competitors criss-crossing the more complex bits with varying degrees of efficiency. Clearly there was enough detail here to make competitors think a little. I do appreciate that it was a challenge to determine which of the many unusual trees were sufficiently noteworthy to be mapped.
I particularly liked control 137 boulder 0.5m W side. A cube of rock almost perfectly sized to hide a control.
Thanks to Dai for controlling and the DVO teams for
efficiently running the event. I particularly appreciated not having to collect
all the controls!

From comments received at the finish line I think most people enjoyed
Rob’s courses. The high number of controls in the area and short legs
