Sprints Course Notes

The equation: New venue with a bigger parking lot = potential for more cool courses!
Note: Course is tentative until event morning – The final course will be set following an on-the-ground inspection of conditions on race morning.
Qualifying round: Qualifying will consist of a single timed run of the full course in an individual start format. 15 second intervals, randomly seeded.
**NEW** To guarentee more racing to more racers, we’ll be running the HEATS as a court-style sprint. Guaranteeing 3 rounds of sprint to every participant beyond qualifiers.
Categories: Depending on the size of field. If there is a sufficient registration numbers to support a separate Junior and Open category, we will split the field for court rounds!
