TNT # 13 - Sunalta Results Toques & Training series

Organizer: Mauricio Estevez (Event Director)

Thanks very much to Mauricio for a fun Score-O and great social! If you did the TNT, please let me know your results.

The Sunalta/ Scarboro TNT will be a Score-O. There will be 20 controls, with the score corresponding to the effort/ distance from the start. Total possible points will be 400.

The optimal route for all controls should be 7.5km, all runnable as long as you’re wearing shoes with good traction. Keep that in mind when building your strategy.

• Controls will be reflective flags
• Point value is implied in the control number; e.g. control 35 is worth 30 points, control 41 is 40 points
• Twenty (20) points will be deducted for every minute over the allotted time
• Be careful crossing 10th Ave SW during busy times
• There are two crossing points:
  • Train tracks crossing from Sunalta to the Bow river pathway
  • Pedestrian bridge on the Sunalta LRT station
• Wear shoes with good traction, preferably cleats as there are icy patches, mostly on green spaces.
• Wear a headlamp and reflective clothes in the dark
