Mid-Week Event, Anzac Park, Toowong, Brisbane

12:00 Thursday 18th May 2006
"Anzac Park" 1:5,000 5m
UBD 158 L16 4.5km West of Brisbane CBD
"Long Scatter" 21 controls 2.25km 65m climb (2.9%)
I enjoyed this, and modifed my plan continuously until about half way round. I think I did 17 minutes (7.6mpk) beating Ainsley who then ran it again 2 minutes faster than me. Well done.
Ray organised the event, discovering at the last minute that the bush had been burned over and the tracks modified.

State Event, Collins Creek, Jimboomba

09:00 Sunday 14th May 2006
"Collins Creek" 1998 1:10,000 5m
UBD GoldCoast1 E17 45km SSE of Brisbane CBD
"Red 3?" 14 controls 5.5km 190m climb (3.5%)
It was interesting to compare this run with the recent rogaine on the same terrain. I ran this at a far greater pace and found the navigation much more challenging.
I don't recall any other insights.
Thanks to Rob for the map and Gary and Fiona for the event.

12:00 Thursday 11th May 2006
"Long" 14 controls 3.9km 225m (5.8% climb)
This was very hard work. My only problem was at 13 which I started looking for in the broad vague gully to the SW.
Thanks to Geoff for the map and the event.
