It was perfect “end of summer” event (moderately hot, lots of spiderwebs, and lots of “green”) and it was great to see everybody again after such long summer break. The courses were designed in a way that runners would not see controls until they find the exact features the controls are on. In other words [...]

May 23, 2010 Lake Johnson

The Lake Johnson Sprints used the less-used area on the west side of the road.   Morning rain didn’t seem to be much of a problem by the time runners started.  The real storm, including hail, waited until just after 3:00, as per BOK regulations, but this was no consolation to the people picking up controls [...]

April 18, 2010 – South Umstead Results

It was a great day for orienteering and we had good turnaround. In fact, I think, we had the biggest beginners class we’ve ever had. Orange course proved to be quite difficult, there were many DNFs.
