Coaching at Summer Evening Events
Coaching Sessions at 5:30 at Seatle, Orrest Head, Grizedale and Dockney Parrock events. (See events page)
20 - 30 minutes 'Tip of the Day' coaching, followed by practice.
Techniques needed to be successful on Light Green (Tech 4) and Green (tech 5) will be on offer, such as
Classic Lakeland terrain, a big steep slope which is highly intricate and covered with mature decidous trees, mature beech and oak woodland on easier going, and very intricate with a wealth of contour detail on the 'flatter' bit. Mixed together with some very fast open running, and you have another of the best areas in England.
This event is combined with a Short race on the Saturday (Haverthwaite). Make a week end of it and come for some of the best orienteering of the year.
Stop press - there was an error in version 1.01 of the final details. The revised version 1.02 of the final details (link above) now shows the colour coded entry fee for adults is £5.00 for British Orienteering members and £7.00 for non members.
Start times at oentries.com (look for the box above the map entitled 'actions')
Iain had to guess some of the courses people ran (mainly the Medium 1 and Medium 2 ?)
Angela Heppenstall became Club Champion, Stan Johnston was the Fast Cat (oldest club member gaining Championship, and not winning before), Bob Stewardson gained the Navigator Trophy, and Kelly Raymond won the Ian Blakey Torphy for Most Improved Junior
Congratulations to all, and thanks to Clare Evans for staging the day...

LOC now has a stock of cloth badges (White to Green)
available for any member who qualifies for a Colour Coded Award for a particular
colour course. A competitor qualifies for a colour coded award by achieving the
Colour Coded Standard for that colour course on 3 separate occasions. Pairs can
qualify for awards on the White, Yellow and Orange courses only. A White
Standard is achieved by anyone who successfully completes the White course. For
courses other than White, the Colour Coded Standard is calculated using
whichever of the following two methods gives the larger number of qualifiers:
·The time that is achieved by at least 50% of competitors
(including those who retired or were disqualified). A pair counts as a single
competitor for this purpose.
·150% of the winner’s time
