Gallopen – High Brow (11/07/2010), Mark Sammon
With the challenge of Orienteering up in the lakes Tony Varley and I decided to take on the Gallopen at High Brow.
MDOC Town & Country Weekend, Mark Sammon
Having only done one Regional event I have had my sights on the Town & Country weekend for a month or so. I enjoy the bigger events with the longer courses and a good challenge! Along with this I have only had 1 qualifying entry on the BOF rankings so I’m also keen to get 6 Regional/National events under my belt to get a ranking!
Saturday – Macclesfield Forest
Held in the North part of the forest the course was challenging as I foolishly turned up with shorts on (It was hot!).
