We're off to the Italian 5 Day this summer after being inspired by Craneys talk at our club dinner, but I still need to be careful with my feet
Looking at the course details, my options as a 21 are E, A, B, C, K and open beginner. It gives distances but no indication of TD.
The K is longer than the C, but in foreign events K tends to indicate Short, so does this mean that C is technically easier? (If this is the case, what is the open beginner? Even easier?)
I want to enter a short, technical as poss course. Which one should I enter - C or K? I need to know ASAP - entries go up next week!
BTW the event looks fab, some of the maps are mind boggling http://www.5days2006.info/images/gos/mappe/Monte%20Livata.gif

Nick Taylor ran (and won) the K course last year and he said that it was technically challenging, it was certainly no easier than the longer courses.
I'm afriad I can't give you any info on the C, but I would probably still recommend K.
Last year's event was great, and I'm going again this year. See you there!!
