What is an Ultra Sprint?
The ultra-sprint is a series of three, short sprint type races where your cumulative times add up to determine the fastest over the course but there is a twist - there are no descriptions, no control numbers on the map and there will be many controls within visible sight of each other, perhaps even on opposite sides of the same feature!
The aim is to read the map carefully and punch the correct control on your course. As an added bonus you cannot record a mispunch. However, a missed control will instead incur a time penalty.
