Forest Sprints on Fridays

Last event this week – check the MAROC website for map and travel directions. Last GRAMP Forest Sprint for this year will take place at Scolty 11th May. A fun way to round off the week scampering about a small area – watch out for the changes of direction and keep your wits about you!

Dunnottar Woods Forest Sprint Results

Apologies for delay in posting results.

And apologies for calling them the Scolty results and confusing you. Or maybe we are predicting the Scolty results so anyone mentioned now has to come this Friday and time their run to second-accurate perfection?

One course TD3 or Orange standard, about 3km, with lots of controls and route choice in a relatively small area so full on concentration required just as much as fleet feet. Great for developing Juniors too if accompanied by a TD3 standard runner. Best 4 scores out of 6 will count towards the FSS league results. Overall results can be found on the MAROC website.

Registration: 18:00 to 18:50
Starts: 18:30 to 19:15
Fees: £4 Senior, £2 Junior/Student

Here’s a flyer you might like to download and print a few copies to leave lying around at work etc?

Summer Forest Sprint Series 2011

GRAMP organised 3 out of the 6 Summer Forest Sprint Series 2011. Results from our events shown here – the Tollo Hill results are/were with the rest on the Maroc website for reasons I’ve forgotten now.

Sprint O is great fun – lots of controls in quick succession in a relatively short distance and fast running alone is no use in this discipline if it’s of the headless chicken variety! You really have to look closely at the map, make snap decisions about route choice, execute them quickly and cleanly while all the time trying to read a jiggling map and watch where your feet are going. Give it a go.
