Mulgrave
Friday, 15 September 2017
First up, I apologise in advance for raising expectations of warmth ... I won't do that again (though the current forecast for next Monday is 22!)
Mulgrave is a real thumb-on-the-map map - very easy to lose your place on. Michael took full advantage to set a good challenging course that somehow seemed to keep drawing you ever further away from the finish. Ian managed all 9 targets, while Dave collected 8; the other Ian got 7 targets and was back before the B course cutoff, ahead of Tony who returned with 6 targets. Lauris and Pete both scored 6 targets on PW. No-one managed a perfect score on Score - Warwick was closest with 98, ahead of Bruce on 96, and Rick and Mark both on 93. Rosemary and Jenny won PW with 57 points, just ahead of Mark on 54.
No change on Target A for Ian, Ray or Dale; David could snatch third after one more week. Ian has 4 wins from 4 on Target B, but will need to ensure he repeats that feat for the next 4 weeks if he wants to earn the chocolate from Graham. On PW, Pete, Ian and Bernie will need to watch out for Helen, who is poised to move into the placings next week. On Score A, Steven leads, Rick is now second, and Warwick just behind in third, but expect to see Andrew on the leaderboard next week. No change on Score PW for Dave, Suzanne or Gwennyth, but Michael is just 2 weeks away from claiming a place.
See you next Monday at See More Grove in Camberwell.

Monday Night Series
Where: Southern and eastern suburbs of Melbourne
When: 7:00pm Mondays; all year round
Cost: $5 per event for adults, $2 for juniors (under 21)
What to bring:
jogging/walking shoes and comfortable, light coloured clothing. Bring a
watch, a drink, and a torch for winter events (late March-mid October).
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.
In
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).
Enquiries: tel 0409 959 673 (Annie)
In
winter (March-October), there are 25 controls marked on the map. Choose one of two formats - a 60 minute Score course (visit as many controls as you can in the allocated time, aiming to score as many points as possible), or a "Target" course, where you aim to achieve a target score between 4 and 36 points.
Enquiries: 0409 135 020 (Debbie)
