Fancy planning some courses for the GB WOC team to look at?
Old maps of Darnaway, Forres and Glen Affric are available here http://www.woc2015.org/embargoed-areas
The latest bulletin with all (official) information about the races is here http://www.woc2015.org/documents/WOC2015_Bulletin_3.pdf
Please email any courses to me and I will pass on to the team

Let's make this competitive... I'll donate a squad sprint vest or technical T-shirt (2010-14 edition) to the person who makes the best prediction of the sprint final course.

Re: Help the GB WOC team
Maybe a rule that another squad member can't win?
I'm happy to match that for the most accurate middle distance course as well - whatever bit of old GB kit that I have that is most appropriate for the winner

Predicting the sprint final course will be the hardest as you will also to have predict where the numerous and inevitable artificial barriers will be placed.

As I have signed a confidentiality agreement I think I need to sit this one out...

Re: Help the GB WOC team
Like taking candy from babies! How about the long and relay? And come on girls, I've already done a bucket load of women's courses but I was holding out for some prizes!

Re: Help the GB WOC team
I'm having fun doing this - nearly finished them all now. Unless I've got my scales all wrong it's a struggle getting so many controls into the middle/relay and sprint distances - the championships seem to be biased towards control-picking rather than orienteering.

Re: Help the GB WOC team
Yep me too, but the Middle/Relay planner is, I believe, as wary of control-pick courses as you and I, so will hopefully have some cunning plans up his sleeves. I suspect he's barred himself from his usual interesting Nope comments- until after the races at least.Adrian wrote:I'm having fun doing this - nearly finished them all now.
