Organiser's Comments
The results now include all finishers . This includes about a dozen who were not able to wait to download while we fixed the hardware problems which cropped up on the day.
For these people, we have assumed you punched correctly and we have enstated a race time based on the start and finish times read from the start and finish units. Your splits are fabricated, and should be ignored.
Otherwise we believe the results are correct.

Mainly coniferous forest split into blocks at various stages of maturity, the majority of which are fast runnable.
There are numerous thickets, clearings, small knolls and pits, and some fine contour detail in places.
Courses have been planned to avoid the worst of the bracken, although some may be encountered on the longer ones.
