the [nope] junior run-in competition!
I know that our family as orieeering goes is very competitive and i'm certain others are too. This is why at any standard of event, be it district or national, it is much more fun if everybody has the same last control and run in. I appreciate sometimes the planner may want the longer courses to have a harder finish but if we can have it at events like the JK and scottish 6day, why can't any event have it I must say sunday nights in our house are more fun with last leg split comparing sessions/inter family banter going on than studying the map. Its just an idea for people to think about. And does anyone agree with me that this should be put into practise at smaller events

Well every second counts sometimes, especially on sprints, plus it's the one leg i definitely always win when racing dad...

Yeah, and a certain wager isn't over yet! Which reminds me, what did you get at Cold Ash?

but you have longer legs surely... and that would then be an unfair advantage

My family is VERY competitive on the run ins too! Every second counts! I can see how close I get to my dad and slag him if I get near! !!! I agree we should all have the same last control to finish! At 6days our club had a run in comp which was great as it made me even more competitive to try and beat not just everyone on my course (w14) but to get near people in my club too!

yeah, the best times are at the jk/british/6 day when our club has a relay competition, they provide much banter! but its always good to be able to compare run-in splits - its the most important part of the course and the only leg i've ever got a top 10 split in at the o-ringen!!
didnt you win almost every day there dave?
