Race Format
Normal Street-O format with clues located at each control site. You have 60 minutes to visit as many controls as possible, in any order, and return to the finish. SI will be used to time the start and finish, please bring your SI card if you have one. Don’t forget to bring a pen to write down your answers to the clues as you go around, and a watch. All controls have been located under normal street light but as always a head torch may be useful in picking up detail and on certain route choices which may not be so well lit.

Officials
Organiser/Planner: Eoin O’Callaghan
It’s always good to see new faces come though to win, but especially when the face belongs to a “junior”, which means under 21 in these terms. Joe Morwood became the youngest ever winner of the race, and by breaking into the all-time fastest times becomes only the tenth person to break the 50 minute barrier. He managed this despite being totally unfamiliar with the course, which was something that gave the chasing Harold Wyber some hope all the way round. Harold was 12th last year and had very much his best run over the race. Third place went to another “junior”, Alan Cherry from Oxford University Orienteering Club, followed by his team mate, Ben Stevens. It was a pity that one of their entrants couldn’t make it as they may well have taken the team prize.
