Event Description
It’s back! The Spring Cup springs back into action.
Wilbert Hollinger has planned some excellent courses. Lyle Fleming is Controller and the Organiser is Anne Bell.
Three courses are planned, so something for everyone:
Green 5.4km 95m climb 16 controls
Orange 3.2km 65m climb 12 controls
Yellow 2.3km 35m climb 9 controls
Parking and assembly are at Woodburn Presbyterian Church, where toilets will be available.
The start is some 950m from the assembly but the finish is only 350m from there
Woodburn is largely a coniferous plantation although there are small patches of decidious woodland. Courses have been designed to use the most runnable areas of the forest but patches of brambles may be encountered. There are numerous earthbanks and some steepsided ditches. Bill Simpson has kindly made some recent updates to the map and long course runners can look forward to visiting a previously unused area.
Please note that, with bikers frequenting parts of the forest, there may be a few unmarked tracks. Some paths are very muddy.
Please note also that, after recent rain, the yellow area around the reservoir is greatly reduced.
