League after 3 events
As expected we were rather short of juniors as Willett Hill is a little further out than usual. The Fox is becoming the Blue Ribbon Event for JOGgers and Paul devised a great corridor map for Fox which provided a good challenge to all takers, although Finley managed it in 32 mins 30secs.

Course Information
We cater from beginners through to a good club standard. We call the courses Hare, Squirrel, Badger, and Fox and these offer a clear progression in the difficulty level. The Fox course usually incorporates adult training exercises.
Hare to Badger usually uses PIN punching, and sometimes also the option of QR code punching using your smartphone. The latter has the training benefit of the GPS tracks automatically being added to Routegadget for post-run analysis. Fox is sometimes PIN/QR punching and sometimes GPS punching. The latter is also automatically uploaded to Routegadget.
