A sprint race in orienteering terms is one with a predicted winning time of 12-15 minutes. Yesterday's courses were approx 3k for the men and a little shorter for the women. Courses are measured on a straight line route between controls but due to buildings and other obstacles the actual distance covered is further.
Maps, courses, results, etc are at http://www.sroc.org/bsec2010/results.htm
Don't worry if top class competition isn't your scene as Steve also works with children and adults interested in improving their fitness, enjoying navigating or just wanting to try a new activity.
