Event Description
The NI Sprint Championships will be on a new map of the North end of Newcastle, assembly in the car park at the North end of the town – opposite the Sl Donard Hotel.
Note: There is a Hill and Dale race in Donard Car Park – the Drinahilly race is the final race in the series – other end of the town from the orienteering. (To avoid confusion).
Course lengths are measured by calculated route choice and are as follows:
Course 1 Men’s Open 3.7k
Course 2 Women’s Open, M Vet 3.0k
Course 3 M Supervet, W Vet 2.5k
Course 4 M Ultravet, W Super/Ultra 2.1k
Course 5 M/W 16, Newcomers 2.2k
Junior Course 1.1k
Course 5 was advertised as M/W 16- but involves crossing some areas that may have busy traffic, as a result any under 16s wishing to do this course may only do so with parental presence and permission on the night. Parents shadowing a junior should complete their own run first. Newcomers on Course 5 should be over 16. A Junior course has been planned which keeps the children on or near the promenade – there will be a road crossing but it will have a marshal, this area may have some traffic but parents may shadow on this course before completing their own run. Entries online may be corrected on the night at Registration.
