Congratulations to TVOC for today's event conducted in continuous cold driving rain and at times sleet. The volunteers including those at the start, the car park "muddy entrance/exit car pushers", and the download team sitting in a very cold tent deserve special praise.
And a great course!
Thanks

Re: Chiltern Challenge
I miss chiltern challenges because in my experience they were always well planned if a little short some times, I never got the feeling the planner didnt know how to do it

Re: Chiltern Challenge
Really enjoyed the event, even though I could not see through my glasses or the water on my compass half way around my course . Will prepare for the race better next time and sort out the basics beforehand i.e. being able to see .
Big congratulations to all the officials and helpers at the event - all smiles which made all the difference to the cold and wet competitors in my car anyway.

Chiltern Challenge 2015
Flyer: "Dogs in car park only" so we didn't enter as it's a long way to go, too long a day to leave the dog at home, and wife and I both want to run.
Final Details: "Well behaved dogs are permitted in car park and in the woods on leads"
Grrrrrr!

Split starts as those with young children have to do?

Annoying...
... but organisers need to negotiate these points with landowners, and surely much better that way around that the opposite.

I haven't seen fractional pits and depressions for a long time I bet the big depressions felt left out!

Re: Chiltern Challenge
Nice event on a surprisingly nice area. Liked the fact that you had to keep your brain engaged all the way round, and that navigating the straight line route looked best for most legs. Thankyou TVOC.
