Maps from Saturday's sprint race
The maps below show the finals from Saturday's sprint race. The race was mass start. There were different variations for the first three loops (i.e. everyone ran all three loops, but not necessarily in the same order). At control 16, you picked up a new map and ran the final loop.
The format made for fun racing. You had plenty of head-to-head racing, but at the same time you couldn't just blindly follow (except for the final loop). The final loop had two legs (18 and 19) with route choice options.
Note that the maps are 1:4,000 and the contour interval is 1.5 meters. Joe Brautigam set the course.
