Planners Comments

Thanks everyone for coming - good to see so many of you. Kings Garn and Castle Malwood offered an interesting and varied area to plan on, howbeit not easy because of the need to work round the out-of-bounds strips, plus trying to keep you clear of windblow, steep banks and excessive squidginess. Thanks for all the feedback and I'm glad most of you enjoyed your runs. Apologies, however, to any Light Green or Blue runners who were confused by the unmapped knoll in the clearing 100m to the south of Control 235. In practice, the knoll was smaller than would usually be mapped; however, I can see that placing one of the Orange controls very close by led to the assumption that it was a mapped control feature.
