Auckland Champs 2000 - Results Short O
Last Updated: 13 October 2000 Course setter's comments
Weiti South is an ideal venue for
short course orienteering, offering the required
very fast running and the
technical requirements of demanding, quick, map reading
skills and swift route
choice selection to tight control sites.
I was surprised that many people are unaware that only one
short course event
should be held on a day. Only two are needed when a
qualifying race is required:
then the finals are held the next day.
The elites wanted no more than 28 to 30 minutes winning time
to conform with
international rules and because of their long Classic race the
previous day. This meant
that I had to drop W21E to course 3 to meet this
margin.
All other courses had to be shortened accordingly and where I
felt it was necessary,
oriented to the weakest class on a course where the
amalgamations were unsatisfactory.
My many thanks to my son, David Melrose, who, despite his
very heavy overseas
commitments, controlled the event excellently, correcting
any of my small errors such
as placing two wrong control descriptions on two of
the maps and using a wrong clearing
on course 2 which he did not discover until
I had placed the control flag.
Finally, congratulations to Bob Murphy who, despite two knee
joint replacements and
a
few years out of the sport, proved he has lost none of
his technical skill by winning his class.
