This Saturday we have another long-awaited ultra sprint, at Wahroonga Park as part of the SOS.
Ultra is a bit like cricket's Twenty20 - short, fast, furious and loads of fun. Participants have a two-hour window to complete 3 line courses, each of approximately 800m and including a maze. (Check out the two-minute video of the maze in action at the 2014 Xmas 5-Days).
There will be controls everywhere, so don't get distracted by other people on a different course!
Wahroonga Park is just 2 minutes from Wahroonga train station, with all of the village coffee shops just a stone’s throw away. It's a fabulous location to add in breakfast before or lunch afterwards. There’s also an excellent children’s playground within the park to keep our youngest adventurers entertained.
The event is suitable for all levels of orienteers – beginners through to our most experienced orienteers are all welcome.
Start any time between 9.30-11am but please be sure to allow plenty of time to get in all three courses (remembering that you may need to wait a sort time for a start slot).
Cost is $10 for members with their own SI stick, $15 for non-members hiring a stick.
