Format

Two courses

    Rabbit   ~3.3 km – medium, 

    Deer      ~5.3 km – longer,

Distances are straight line – optimum routes are about 50% longer.

Controls must be visited in the order set. Flags are 15cm kites – “punching” using SI punching

Timing

Timing of all participants to the nearest second, results will be published, and included in the LuxNUL league table.

Special rule. Please wear a watch! Both courses cross as well the railway, at the N7, at level crossings, with either booms or traffic lights. If you are delayed, time the delays. Report this at the finish – you are trusted to be honest! This “time out” will be deducted from your elapsed time.

Map

New sprint map printed in 1:400, ISSOM.  Laser printed, on Pretex semi-waterproof paper or in plastic mapcase.

Terrain

Residential urban streets, flat apart from a 40-metre gentle climb near the end of both courses. Training shoes optimal. Mostly reasonably well lit, but maybe a few dark parts on the courses – torch or small headlamp advised.

Safety

Everyone takes part entirely at their own risk. Please take great care, especially on or crossing the more main roads. High visibility clothing strongly recommended.

Crossing points. You may only cross the railway and the main N7 at the crossing points shown on the map. At traffic lights, you may only cross on the green signal. In one location, there is a tunnel under the road and in two locations tunnels under the railway. Failure to follow each of these rules will mean disqualification.

The event will be postponed if there is lying snow, or verglas, forecast 24 hours in advance – check the website for notices.

After the run

Some refreshments served.
