The night started off a little drizzly but soon cleared into a warm(ish), but quite dark, evening. When I started to compile the course, I went back through some of my old previous NiteNavs and thought that I would resurrect a few controls giving some choices of route for both the runners and walkers and I was right as most went anticlockwise with some choosing to go round in numerical order but one or two went 1, the 3 then 2 which actually shortened the distance. The route was also devised so that there were two distinct areas - Roseberry/Hanginstone and the Hutton Woods area. Controls 1,2 & 3 were in the first area and 4 - 7 were in the Hutton Woods area allowing the walkers to try to complete, mostly, the Hutton Woods area.
We had quite a decent turnout with 10 runners and walkers, even though a few of the regulars were unable to make it. I felt sorry for Dave T who seemed to struggle in the Hangingstone and Little Roseberry areas and wasn't quite where he'd thought he was and so giving up on a couple of controls in order to get the rest. Poor Mick P and Steve really struggled to find there way round the Bold Venture Gill area getting stuck behind barbed wire fencing and trying to find a way out. They were absolutely shattered having been out over three hours. Good job it wasn't freezing cold but they did return safely.
Well done to Ian Hodgson who won finishing over 25 minutes ahead of 2nd place Vince Connolly. Third place was extremely closely fought with Wai just pipping Mark by 20 seconds.
Nearly everyone enjoyed the course so it's thanks to all who turned up and took part.
The Next NiteNav is on November 17th from Gribdale and organised by Mark Edwards. Hope to see you there, Bill.
