ok boys and girls, just a few final notes:

We want to start the race at 10am sharp - so please be at the UCP ready to go at 9.45 - we'll have a quick briefing before we set off
The points on the respective run/bike course must be photo-ed in order - this will be checked at the end - penalty for missing a point or having it in the wrong order is 10 mins per point
I will have maps printed so that people can take them with them if they want

At the moment we have 8 teams :D

UCP is here: https://tinyurl.com/z8sz3jp

I know it very late to be asking this question but unsure whether this is for me. I am not a fast runner & I don't know where any of these points are & I'm not very good at map reading. So I don't want to get lost, get enoyed cause i cant find the points or keep anyone from doing the bike. Any thoughts??

I don't want to put you off, but the course isn't marked and you would be responsible for finding your own way around, with the help of a map. . It's a race so you would need to be self sufficient.
Have a look at the map and look at the area on Google maps and street view to get a better idea, but you're running out of time to do that level of homework.

Thanks David for your honesty and helping me make a decision. I will leave myself out for this one. It was a concern for me as I am not familiar with the area. Hope ye all enjoy the day & look forward to seeing some good pics.
