Well, posting in the day of the event is a first for me! The wonders of the MiFi… 
Anyway, back onto the orienteering! Today was the first of the NW Night League events, hosted by Deeside Orienteers at Eastham Country Park.
In true Night League tradition, me and mum kicked off our campaign with a Pairs Orange course.
After travelling up earlier in the day (with the best music soundtrack in the world 
) we got to the Park in plenty of time and registered… que the mad scramble to find the whistles and dibber!
We set off, and we ran and ran! As the controls were mainly path-based, we were fairly fast with minimal stopping (thanks to Control Flow, Hamish!!).
We arrived back after 30minutes and 4 seconds, a very reputable time I think!
EDIT: Sorry about not updating earlier- the results have been up for a while now but I forgot to add them onto the post!!
We came 3rd out of 6 – 3 minutes behind the people in front – which I feel was fantastic for only our 4th (2nd NW Night League) night event!! Results are available here.
RouteGadget is available for this event here
Garmin Connect data is going to be uploaded shortly for this event

True to my word, the Eastham (DEE) Night Event results are up now. I was out collecting controls until 21:50, so I think I’ll allow myself to wait until tomorrow morning for doing RouteGadget. Hope you enjoyed it.
Thanks! Your post reminded me I need to do two things – update the blog post and disable the moderation queue!! Will sort that now.
I’ve added the results on (finally!). Thanks!
