Oh no, Wamburun
12 Oct 2024, 03:02. 1x 📷. Posted by Chloe Woodburn - IB Marketing Officer.
Just as I finished praising Wamburun for taking the more direct route south through Bendora Arboretum, it looks like they’ve also changed their mind. It will be interesting to see whether they subsequently follow Bruce, Lodge, and Johns back south, or stick it out to the north-east.
Maybe Wamburun will re-evaluate given they’ve just crossed paths with both Fenner and Ursies. Still, this is crucial time lost. Let’s see what happens at the next tracker update.

This variable window scout time sure caused a stir at the runners briefing. However due to its location on Brindabella Valley Road, it was a necessary design feature of this drop to allow scouts to pick up the same level of information based on visibility. We'll keep you updated on heading south leads to private property. Teams heading North, will have to make an immediate decision to head up Honeysuckle Trail or to Piccadilly Circus via the powerlines adjacent to Brindabella Rd. Heading up Honeysuckle trail is significantly quicker (for the 'average' IB team) (15-45 minutes depending on later route choice), likely as it does not involve the bonus vert required to follow the powerlines unrelenting straight line over spurs, gullies and knolls…

The predictor is now up and running!, at the start will be super volatile and likely under estimate time of arrival just after drop (over estimate eventual overall average GAP (Gradient Adjusted Pace)) as typically teams start off hot/fast (see below graph of speeds of historical IB teams) with it taking time for teams to settle in a rhythm and on a route. It also assumes optimal navving which is probably unlikely, only accounting for the terrain and distance of the optimal route ahead. This means it will also not consider other factors that may slow a team down like a trail being overgrown…
