Umstead South, Amphitheater
What started as a very gloomy, rainy day eventually turned dry. With a temperature suitable for runners, the wet vegetation was probably more of an annoyance than the short burst of rain we experienced shortly after noon.
Seeing the rain, we changed the plans on the fly, and we converted the event into a remote start/finish scenario – we used for registration one of the shelters which was conveniently not rented. This caused some confusion, in order to finish one had to pass the shelter and cross the parking lot, then come back to the shelter in order to download.
Downloading was another problem. As noted in another post, I (Mihai) didn’t think to charge it the night before, which was the reason for the weird printouts.
Finally, I (still Mihai) managed to misplace control #4 – when I picked it up I noticed the shallow depression sign above the depression close to the river, which should have been a clear indication, in case the proximity of the river was not enough. Sincere apologies for the mess.
Andy designed a challenging course, with lots of contours to be crossed. Unlike our regular events, Red (the longest) did not contain all controls on the map, which was another source of confusion for the runners not noticing that they had to skip from 4 to 7. In hindsight, we could have designed a blue course close to 8km long, that would have included all controls.
Controls 8 and 9 on Red were in close proximity of the area with lots of ruins, which I always found fascinating – and I experienced my share of fun with them.
Many thanks to the team that helped retrieved controls: Andy Huber, Artem Kazantsev, Tobias Karlsson, Bill Ebenstein. Joseph and Ruth helped with proofreading and printing the map.
