Course: Cam East Long 60mins PostboxO 2023

60 minute score

This is a Score course which means you should get as many controls as you can within 60 minutes.

There are 34 controls in total. You do not need to get them all and you can visit them in any order.

Controls score different numbers of points:
  • Controls numbered 30 to 39 score 30 points
  • Controls numbered 40 to 49 score 40 points
  • Controls numbered 50 to 59 score 50 points
  • Controls numbered 60 to 69 score 60 points
  • Controls numbered 70 to 79 score 70 points
  • Controls numbered 80 to 89 score 80 points
  • Controls numbered 90 to 99 score 90 points
  • etc.
For each minute or part-minute you are late back, you will lose 20 points. Controls numbered from 900-999 are worth 100 points, but will not punch in the first or last 10 minutes of the event. The highest number of points wins. The time you take is used as tie-break.
