Round up
Events & other news
Another North Gloucester event, another steep sloped hill! At least the Lewises had good training for the Wrekin at Springtime in Shropshire by venturing up to Leckhampton on Saturday (11 May).
Read Karen's entertaining write up below.
Rushmore Galoppen
South West League
With the best in the South West distracted by the British Orienteering Champs in Yorkshire, there was a good chance for the rest to gain extra points at Rushmore on Sunday. Pete Shirvington and Bill Vigar in particular each took full advantage.
Spring into action
Where next?
Though we only have one more event left this season (at Blackborough on Sat 18 May), there's still lots of action over the next two months, listed below.
These include events very nearby in Devon, on the Mendips and also Dorset.
Sue Gard,1948 - 2019

Sue's funeral is this Thursday (9 May) and arrangements are detailed further below, together with a piece written by Mike Crockett.

Events round up
Weekend of 13/14 April
Fore! The day before our Staple Hill event (Saturday 13) was a chance to run on Cleeve Hill on the Cotswolds, where runners weaved around the fairways during a golf competition being held at the same time.
JK 2019

This year's international festival of orienteering is being held relatively close by (Aldershot area).
Good luck to all eighteen people going!

News & events round up
Poldice Mine was active in the 17th century- and also on Sunday 8 April when there was some ore-ienteering going on...
The Bussell family struck a rich seam down there. Results

Staple Hill preview
League analysis
Who's in the running for the trophies? The league tables have begun to take shape but with two QOFLs left, even those who've ran just once so far have a chance. So early pacesetters are best to keep on showing up to defend their lead!
Simplification
Training video
Focussing on the big features on the map which are easy to see on the ground helps you go faster. Less time is then spent studying irrelevant detail on the map. This skill takes a bit of practice.
It's explained by GB athlete Ralph Street.
Blackbrook JOG
We had a wonderful, sunny Spring day for the last JOG of the season at Blackbrook, primroses and blossom to be seen everywhere!
