Sprints at Charles Sturt University

We made it to the Sprints with time to spare . The only really interesting thing on the way there from Culcairn was the big black sign with yellow writing exhorting us to "Obey your stomach" as we came through Uranquinty.

We had to park down at the bottom of the university and walk up around the buildings and in at the top to try to save us from seeing too many of the controls.

The assembly area was a quadrangle with paths and grass, surrounded by the buildings. The start entry was on one side of the quadrangle and we were filtered around a building so that the starts were not visible to the watchers.  It was quite difficult to find the start triangle when we picked up our map.

The courses were complex (as expected) with the longer ones heading out into the hill and rock area in the middle.  I was glad not to have to manage the mind shift of that on my course.







Erica's Course


Trevor's Course

Then on to Cootamundra, where we checked in to our basic motel room,. had a much needed shower and then headed out to tea with Al and Zita at the local ex-servicemens club

Trevor is hobbling due to an achilles injury and we took it easy walking to the club because of it.  We hope it will get better overnight.
