Trent Park Boxing Day Event
(Monday 26th Dec 2011)
The Trent Park Boxing Day Score Event in North London was organised by LOK in conjunction with the Happy Herts club. Results can be downloaded here: results /results with split times
A ‘score’ event entails running to as many controls on the map as possible within 60 minutes. You decide which controls to visit and in which order, with the knowledge that different controls score different point values (10, 20 or 30 points). There is a penalty (2o points) for each minute you are late back. Details (PDF) of the event can be downloaded here.

Leading LOK scorers were Glen Jones and Pete Sacares, followed closely by Andrew Goldstone and Glen Slade, with Catherine Galvin the best LOK woman. Full results are here. (Small correction 28 Nov).
