A fine dry night ensured everyone had a good night out in
the fields and woods around the A19. The course included the
medieval village of Stainsby of which many of the
competitors visited for the first time. The course was
designed for both runners, with lots of fast tracks and
walkers with an obvious cut off point halfway to return to
the finish. When I set this course out I thought there might
be some "local difficulties" in Stainsby Woods. However all
competitors seemed to have survived their ordeal without too
much trouble managing to dodge the paint guns etc. although
Ian Hodgson blamed the car breakers in the beck from putting
him off the A19 culvert checkpoint, thus costing him
valuable points on the night. Just a normal Tuesday night
really, Bref |

A beautiful warm sunny evening saw 17 runners and walker set
off on an epic outing. The course had been deliberately set
over a very large area covering most of the area between
Great Ayton, Percy Cross Rigg and Roseberry in order to give
plenty of choice for both runners and walkers. More than
expected went for the farthest out controls, one in Sleddale,
Hanging Stone and surprisingly a large number bagged
Roseberry Topping. Most competitors were within 5 minutes,
or so, of the 2-hours limit with only a couple going
slightly over - seems like the penalty system works! This
enables the organisers to get a pint before 9pm without
rushing. There was plenty of 'constructive' criticism of the
course but I think on the whole most enjoyed the outing
especially given the smashing weather. The sun does shine on
the righteous..........

A lovely summer evening with a slight northerly breeze saw a
rather depleted number of runners and walkers take on a
challenging tour de Rosedale. Mike and I planned the course
(in awful weather) to provide an easily navigable tour
through some of the best sights of Rosedale including the
East Mines and Sherrif’s Pit. This is usual running
territory for me but for others it was a new area so we
wanted everyone to get a real feel for Rosedale. Almost
everyone came off course on the drop down to Thorgill from
the mineral railway – with some charges of ungentlemanly
conduct and lack of fair play directed against one person
who apparently took a rather creative route! There was a
positive response to the route but as the navigation wasn’t
particularly difficult it was more an issue of who would be
fastest round – in the end Trevor pipped David to the post –
even after David’s often superior navigation meant that he
kept popping out of hedges ahead of Trevor when Trevor
though he was far behind! Thanks everyone for coming out to
support a Nav off our usual circuit, Martyn.
Next NiteNav is Ian Hodgson's from another new venue at
Hawnby. |

It was a good turnout considering the
weather, the distance to the venue for some and the Saunders
and Phoenix just being on the previous weekend. Also there
were the folk just coming to form and overdoing it and
getting injured. Well done Tom, who was a clear winner and
the youngest runner. He’s never been to the Hawnby area
before, so he had to read his map and guess where the path
went, as there were a few areas where there is no evidence
of a path on the ground. The rest of the runners were all
very close together with a mixture of routes taken which was
good to see. Ian Mac came back early after setting off with
Bob and Bill who were setting too hard a pace for him to
stick with after his run at the Phoenix on Saturday and also
Dave T came back early tired from his weekends efforts in
the Saunders, the heavy rain probably dampened their
enthusiasm to carry on as well. Hawnby is a lovely area and
a bit different to the rest of the North York Moors, with a
few prominent hills, pretty streams and valley’s and lesser
walked paths and bridleways through woodland. Everyone
seemed to enjoy it, it was a shame the rain put a dampener
on things and spoilt the views from the tops. It was good to
hear everyone had to read the map, not being familiar with
the paths in this area and a few got caught out straight
lining in the open access areas to get caught up in the
bracken. Paul got stopped by a farmer and was asked where he
was going, even though he was on a footpath. I’d try to plan
the course on how I would like to run round it but then have
to consider how I would pick up the checkpoints that weren’t
on the outside circuit. I also had to consider that there
would be a few walking it and what would be possible in the
two hours and still have a bit of interest. Nobody walked
it. I also wanted to try and avoid folk using the road for
fast running, as for me the enjoyment is running the paths
off-road not road running. By luck more than planning the
course turned out to lend itself to mountain biking as when
you look at the map, most of the checkpoints turned out to
be on bridleways or roadside. We’ll have to try and get out
to Hawnby area again and the pub had some good real ale on.
Thanks to everyone for turning up and it makes it worthwhile
knowing folk have had a good run out. Thanks also to Sophie,
James and Tom for totalling the scores, no wonder he won so
convincingly and getting back dead on two hours, honest!
Ian. Next NiteNav is on 7th August at Kirkby, courtesy of
Trevor. See you all there.

It was great to see such a good turnout for my NiteNav, 16
in total. Apologies for not getting the weather right, but I
don't think it spoiled anybody's fun. I hope everybody
enjoyed the course. On paper it looked fairly straight
forward just following footpaths around the area and
visiting places of interest. In reality not that straight
forward as I found out when planning the route. I think it
made for an interesting event where navigational skills
where required and we all have done our bit to keep open
infrequently used footpaths. Congratulation go to Dave
Allison who managed all the controls with only seconds left
at the finish. The winner of the dirtiest finisher goes to
Bref who managed to fall into a slurry lagoon That'll teach
him to take shortcuts! I don't think his Smelly Helly tee
shirt will ever be white again but will live up to being
smelly. A good night all round, don't forget Bob Howe's
NiteNav on 28th August at Bank Foot, Trevor. |

The fine weather attracted a good entry to Bank Foot for the
last of this years NiteNavs. With the Sun shining on the
Righteous seventeen competitors set forth in several
directions on the course which was probably correctly
described as a road run with a few fields added for
variation. Strangely, for a road run, the event was won by
our inveterate off-roader Ian Hodgson in 80 mins, who beat
all the opposition by quite a bit. His favourable comment at
the end was that it was a good blast round - it certainly
was for him. Dave once again proved that orienteering is not
just about straight line speed coming home minute ahead of
Bill and Ken in a very respectable time. Paul came home a
few minutes later with most of the rest completing in the
1:40s. Our walkers John & Ian collected all bar 3 of the
controls with a sprint finish inside the allotted 2 hours.
Richie was last home as the moon was rising over Battesby
Plantation. There were some interesting routes taken on what
I'd imagined was a fairly obvious out and back loop and some
times suffered as a result. Most folk collected all the
controls although there was some discussion about number 3,
with some "misinterpretation" of my intended question.
Answers varied from 8 to seventeen and a half, which was my
original answer, but all were accepted as proof you'd been
there. The promise of a nettle free run was almost true and
happily no one came into conflict with the Bull. Everyone
seemed to enjoy the trot around the 9 or so miles. Thanks
for coming, Bob, Amy & Barney - Bob H. |
