Mid-Week Event, J.C.Slaughter Falls, Mount Coot-tha, Brisbane


12:00 Thursday 26th October 2006
"Slaughter Falls" 2006 1:7,500 5m
UBD158H12 6km West of Brisbane CBD
"Long" 3.7km 235m climb (6.7%)

My first run on this map.

Despite Clive's best efforts the course was rugged as well as technically very challenging. My 49 minutes (13.2mpk) gave me 3rd place behind Matt and Gary (42 minutes.)

Some took the high road from 9 to 10 but I took the low. Straight might have been better - the Lantana isn't too bad at the moment.

Street-O, Mooloolaba, Sunshine Coast


08:30 Sunday 1st October 2006
"Mooloolaba" 2006 1:10,000 5m
UBD Sunshine Coast 85km north of Brisbane CBD
"Long Foot" 12 controls 3.8km as the crow flies no climb

This was a scatter event - get 12 out of 23 quick as you can. The maze of canals made many controls doglegs, and loop planning was all about assessing the size of each dogleg and choosing the least worst ones.

I came 2nd of 13 in 43 minutes, 8 minutes behind a fit person and 2 minutes ahead of Mike who got too many controls. The pencil lines sort of show where I went.

It's pronounced "Muh-LUH-luh-bar"
