Random 15 Championship 2009/10

[greatkingrat]

How about a R15 that includes the New York Subway?

How about a Photo R15? By that I mean taking the principle of the xmas park challenge of having to exit every one of the selected stations and take a photo of the front of the station

I think that the yearly Random 15 thing should be four or five or six Random 15s, each with their own little twist (like added DLR, zone 3, whatever).

How about a Random 15 where every challenger has to carry a backpack full of bricks?

I'd be up for this too, as long as we were allowed support crews.

I have the equivalent on most R15's - Bus maps, train timetables, A to Z, 3 to 4 sets of darts, couple of bottles of drink etc.......

...and of course the bricks!

The BERC rules: Yes but this would have to be done on a handicap system, with faster runners given more bricks to carry than slower runners.

How about a R15 that includes the New York Subway?

The BERC rules: I think that should be part of the International R15 Championship, which will also include, Paris, Moscow, Isle of Wight & Basle.

On the R15 to include Z3.... on consideration I think we could do this for one round, either November, January or May. As I suggest to Kevin we could make it just Z2/Z3 although pass-through Z1 would be allowed, or simply stick to Z1-3. I think with a 12:00 start and maybe a 4:30 time limit this could be a good challenge. Any team failing to visit all 15 stations would have to note number of stations visited inside 4:30, so exact arrival times at each station would be crucial in the event of tied number of stations visited.

I suppose this could make route planning that little bit more interesting.

If you were to get a set of stations that were pretty spread out, you may have to plan your route to cover the most stations rather than completing all the stations.

Imagine being caught by a random search by British Transport Police and trying to explain having bricks in one's bag!

I think the current schedule of 3 normal R15s and 3 "twist" R15s is fine as it is. I don't think we need to come up with a twist for every event.

You lot spend more time discussing rules than you do actually doing the bloody challenge ...

[jamesthegill]

I would like to point out that my suggestion of carrying bricks was a sarcastic tongue in cheek suggestion.

I *think* everyone realised it, but I still worry that someone might take me seriously.

How about no challenge and go straight to the pub !
