Planner's Comments
– Bernard Pullen
This
was the second consecutive year that I have planned the Lanhydrock
event and it became almost impossible to find something different as most of
you have run here on many occasions.
This year I reduced the length and climb of the courses under close
scrutiny and constructive advice from Dick and, having had a quick look at the
results we were not too far from the BOF guidelines.
While
I was touring Lanhydrock during the planning stages I
found several control sites with tape from previous years which should have
been removed when collecting controls back in.
I think this is something that all planners, including myself, should be
aware of.
Having
the event on probably the best weekend weather wise we could have wished for it
certainly helped to make it a very enjoyable day (hopefully) for all those who
took part.
The
organisation was excellent, thanks to Ransom family who did a first class
job. I would like to thank Dick, who was
the Controller for the event, for not only his help and overall guidance but
for previous help with the OCAD system, which I feel at last I am beginning to
understand.
Finally
I would like to thank all who helped with the collecting of the controls, Barry
and Pauline for their continued work on every event we hold and Ruth for her
patience.
Controller's Comments – Dick Smith
General
I’d
like to echo Bernard’s comments and also thank him for all his (and Ruth’s)
hard work. The ‘R’ team’s organisation was slick, despite having problems
finding helpers. Barry starred, as always, with SI and the computer and Pauline
‘gave up her run’ to encourage/supervise some of the youngsters and get them to
do a second course. All are a pleasure to work with. Bernard’s friend Colin
deserves a mention for all his help putting out controls on the Saturday.
Estimates
of the numbers of maps needed were about right though perhaps future events
might like to have more Yellow/Orange/Lt Green for second-coursers. Blank maps
might also be useful as a back up.
Map
Before
the next FL event here, the following could do with attention - north
re-aligning/checking, runnability screen revising,
knolls and rootstocks checking and the many parkland alterations put onto the
map. One of the wooden fences was removed only a few days before the event.
There are some well-mapped, rarely-visited areas in the north and south which
are worthy of use before they are completely overgrown, even though only the
longer courses would visit them.
Courses/results
White
and Yellow suffered from the lack of a suitable path network and so mainly
followed fences with the liberal use of smileys and
taped routes. This seemed to work well and justified the effort required
although they weren’t very ‘pushchair friendly’. Some of the parkland legs on
the less technical courses caused problems for those who didn’t orientate the
map properly. On Blue and Brown, 235 and 236, south of the river were
challenging for some but not for others. Splits for the parkland legs were
close. AM’s 2nd place on Green show how accurate you can be when
walking – fast.
I
was keen that Bernard kept lengths (including height allowance) close to the
guidelines. This he did and the spread of times is about what I expected. Can I
recommend Route Gadget on the KERNO web site to you? It’s good to see what
others have done and optimum routes aren’t always obvious, even after the
event. Thanks for coming.
Organiser's Comments – Chris Ranson
Well
what a fantastic day! The sun shone, the courses worked well. I had a
great band of helpers. Thank you very much to you all. We had a
very good turnout of competitors, despite several regulars trying out their
skills elsewhere on the ski slopes. My thanks to
Bernard Pullen for planning and doing a brilliant job. Also to Dick Smith for controlling and equally doing it well.
I would like to thank Jamie, our eldest son, who unexpectedly arrived for the
weekend, and being an old hand at organising was a great help. It was
also encouraging to see several groups of newcomers
'having a go' at orienteering for the first time.
