Officials' Comments

A good turnout always makes the effort of officiating at an event more satisfying.

Thanks to everyone for the kind comments about map, area and courses. As someone said the courses had a "bit of everything" "challenging mentally".
David's courses (the technical ones) were built around the loop in the far wood and the long leg (circa 20% of the distance). This proved a good mix of mental and physical challenge.

The well drilled NATO teams made the organisation run smoothly. A thank you to all who helped me collect in the controls.
