Time to book onto Nope Training Week and enter the PT before you go away for the summer and forget about it. The training week is going to be awesome, open to absolutely anyone, in wonderful terrain and staying in places with a lot of character! Every day there'll be exciting and innovative training for every standard of orienteer, touring around the best bits of Scotland and ending at the PT.
If you've never been to Glen Affric, you're missing out. It's like the forest that time forgot once you get up onto the top, full of deer, wonderfully runnable in most places, intricately contoured and allowing for devious route choices, with just enough line features to keep the juniors happy. It's going to be a wonderful weekend and easily accessible from Inverness airport. The WOC Classic courses are incredible, though I have to say I was beaten by the women's four controls from the end. Don't skip dinner before running 11km
And obviously, there will be plenty of EVO Nope banter. The Nairn Highland Games, who could ask for anything more? Might want to practice your caber tossing instead of axe throwing Dave.
So, who's coming?!
