From the Organiser
This event was very much a collaboration between officials. Organisers being hard to find in BKO, I agreed to take on the role, but was not sure if I was actually going to be there on the day or day before with possible commitments to the major Events Conference. Many thanks to Peter Entwistle for working with me as co-organiser. Then Pete Jones nobly took on being the controller, despite another prior engagement on the Sunday morning. Pete did all the pre-event controlling, including checking controls on the morning, then went off and completed his 10km race, and returned afterwards, with cover during the actual event coming from Eric Harper.
So the event actually happened, we had a lovely day and a very high turnout, with over 150 runners on the Blue course and around 390 in total. For the mathematicians amongst you that works out as nearly 40% of runners on one course! So we had to print maps on the day again, which hopefully didn’t impact on too many of you. As a club we try to make events user friendly and have therefore resisted having pre-entry for Level C events, but I think from now on we will have to use pre-entry at this level just to try to reduce the variability in number of maps printed. For comparison our similar level event in May had only 247 runners and 71 on Blue, so printing nearly 100 Blue maps in advance seemed reasonable.
One point, although it isn’t a requirement in the Rules to help lost runners, (only injured runners) a group of children did get lost on the Yellow course and correctly blew their whistle for assistance when distressed. No competitor helped them, or reported that there was a group of young children in difficulties in the wood to the organising team. They were assisted by a member of the public and returned without mishap. I would plead for competitors to consider whether they should have at least let us know that there were children out there blowing a whistle, even if you did not wish to interrupt your competitive run.
Finally, thanks to Jon Steed of BAOC who acted as liaison and arranged for us to get keys and access.
