Given the weather we had in the last few days (and every time I visited Parc
Cwm Darran), waking up to glorious sunshine was quite wonderful, and this
was reflected in a good turnout. Although cold and soggy underfoot, I think
everyone enjoyed the weather as much as I did. The challenge when planning
was to avoid the many "crossable" barbed-wire fences, which required using
control sites based on location, not always ideal. Some legs on the orange course
were quite challenging, and I must apologise that the ride into control 3 wasn't
quite as clear as it could have been. Many thanks to Stuart Lewis for helping me put out and check the controls, and
the various people who collected them in. Kate also had plenty of helpers bagging
maps and getting the start underway. Thanks to everyone who enjoyed Kate's
cakes - the money raised will go to Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF).
