Thanks to everybody who made this event such a success including all the runners and helpers – and particular thanks to our course planner Jonathan.
Five years after Storm Arwen flattened most of the forest it was good to be once again running on the southern part of the map as well as the dune strip.
Having two events going on in parallel – a SoSOL and the Junior Inter Area championships – complicated the role for Andrea as event organiser. But it also made for a very cheerful and lively atmosphere throughout.

Many thanks to everyone taking part in today’s event whether as competitors or helpers (or as both). Michael’s courses made the most of the limited area of Butterdean and he managed to plan White and Yellow courses which were quite different from each other allowing many youngsters to tackle two distinct challenges.
Thanks also to the cake providers – Neil and Jeff. Much appreciated on an afternoon when the kind weather encouraged post-race chat.

Sprintelopes are lightweight informal events featuring Urban style races around the streets of towns in East Lothian and other areas in and around Edinburgh on Wednesday evenings.
In 2026, ELO are contributing four races to the series – this is the fifth of them, around Tranent. Expect some deviously similar looking sections on a map with plenty of scope for making parallel errors!
Orienteers of all abilities are welcome to join us on the day when we will have a range of courses to suit everyone.
