Judging by some of the remarks at the finish, the courses seemed to work quite well. Hamsterley Common can be a tricky area to run on - features a few and far between and the terrain can be rather vague, so concentration on the map and good compass work are essential. Unfortunately as the moor is so open it was quite easy to follow other competitors. I would have liked to use a few more controls, paricularly for the brown course up in the quarried area, but a late change in plans to accomodate the fell race had meant adjustments to the yellow and orange courses, which needed dedicated controls in the forest. In the end, I had to plan around using a maximum of 40 controls - 25 on the moor, which did compromise some of the courses. The weather was a pleasant surprise given conditions during the week - we did have plans to cut the brown and the blue courses short to avoid the stream crossing, but after an inspection of the water levels on Saturday the stream was felt to be crossable. I must appologise for the mix up with the last control on some of the courses - a breakdown in communication between myself and Boris had meant that late changes to the courses had not been updated on the computer - sorry if you didn't get your full splits.
