The key to this one seemed to be picking up no 1 at the beginning, before heading to the more obvious 17. No 1 was so close, that some people didnt notice it till later. Distances were a little on the short side but the uphill finish gave us a good workout.
A course ran pretty much to form, with Andrew, Ian and Steven the first three across the line. Bruce was first on B, followed by Eleanor in her final event before heading home to London, then Andrew. Tony, Phil and Ray were quickest on C, while I edged out Murray on D (having spotted the aforementioned no 1). Dave continued on his winning way in PW with 62 points; Garry edged closer with 58, while Barry was back a little way on 53.
There was very little movement on the overall leaderboard this week, so we'll check back again next time. Head down to Ferntree Gully next Monday, and enjoy the creekside trails of Glenfern Run, in the leafy foothills of the Dandenongs. This map offers something for all - hills (east); no hills (west). Enjoy!

What to bring:
jogging/walking shoes and comfortable, light coloured clothing. Bring a

Please arrive 20-30 minutes early. This will provide time to help you register for the event and explain how to take part.
Groups (schools, scouts, sports or social) are extremely welcome,
but please contact us at least a week prior to the event so we can
ensure enough maps are printed.

summer (October-March), there are 4 runners courses ranging from 3.5-10 km, and a 60
minute power walkers' course. For runners the format is Scatter (visit a
designated number of controls in any order, first back wins), and for
power walkers the format is Score format (visit as many controls as you
can in the allocated time).
