Why are not more people going to the Pig? I had the impression the Pig was the grand opening of the O-season in North America or was last year's solid crowd just a result of the WRE-status?
I think that is the reason that most top orienteers wanted to go to the PIG and for the FARSTA.The reason(s) that I stoped going is that , the terrain once you'v been once or twice there as I have, it does'nt seem so interesting anymore,plus you get to run on the same maps over and over again and there is no FARSTA this year either.But I am going this year and that's because I have time to go.
I'm going, just signed up late.
My guess is that it's the absense of the Farsta. The pig has enjoyed good sized fields for several years. I believe that at least 3 more SLOC'ers are going than indicated on the start list.
