My Dean just called to discuss the idea of the Oxford Sprint Race going through our college. He asked me to explain what we would be doing, so I explained the navigating from set point to set point in the fastest time possible thing while choosing the best route and he goes "oh - what does all that have to do with orienteering then?!"

Somebody get us a cool image. And quick.

haha that's better than the usual "what's orienteering" or "we did that in school, it sucked"

when are you thinking of having the sprint race?

Oh dear... I thought Oxford people were meant to be intelligent. Well, we are spreading the word, I suppose.

It is going to be during the World Cup Week on the 6th May. Come one, come all! Though strictly the council haven't given us permission yet - they're keen but want to see the courses first.
