Note

Not sure whether I'm actually sick, or its just that I'm so tired my body (and brain) have shut down. Feeling pretty shabby and spent a lot of the last 2 days sleeping.
RAT last night was negative.

Gold Coast sprints done! So wrecked now, but it was a great weekend. Brenton did an insane amount of work to figure out the logistics of 5 races in 48 hrs, and although it was crazy busy it all came together really well.
The highlight for me was the night relay. I was a bit sad i didn't get to run that one.

Once again, a massive effort by heaps of people to put the weekend together. Brenton for sorting out access to all the schools which was a nightmare that dragged on for months, Mark for the maps, Tony and team for running the results and keeping everything in track over the weekend - especially through the knock-out, and the Gray crew for working out all the knock-out logistics, including running 2 full practice events.
Also the event team that set up, ran and packed up all those events so efficiently!

Setters and controllers were - The Spit - Andy (did it all in the end), relay - Su Yan, Rachel and Peter. Sprint qual - Dan and Caroline. WRE Griffith - Lorenzo and Tim. Knock-out - Brenton and Juliana.

C • Thanks so much to you and the team! 2

Note

Is been a massive weekend on top of 2 big years preparing for the Easter carnival. There have been plenty of challenges and uncertainty, with covid, weather, overgrown maps etc. We were hoping for 500 entries, so to get 650 was awesome.
The maps have gone from bare to overgrown and back to nicely runnable, and it was really great that in the end the vegetation didn't override the technical challenges of the terrain.
It has been really great to work with an awesome team of setters and controllers who have worked so hard to put on the best event possible, so big thank you to Ben and Nic for the prologue, Lance, Riley and Wendy - days 1 & 2, and Tony and Krystal - day 3. Big thank you as well to Geoff for the maps and numerous updates as the vegetation changed, which then changed where needed updates. Also of course a massive thank you to OQ Pres Juliana and everyone else who helped make it all happen.

Now for a little rest (work) before the Gold Coast sprints.

C • Thanks to everyone 3

Massive weekend of taping legs on the easy courses, collecting stands from a part of the map that has been declared too grassy (and too snakey today), and clearing assembly area and car park. Totally wrecked but got heaps done.
