In the absence of any other interesting news at the moment, it can be reported that in a prime example of collaboration across the university, Joel and Andrew Black from the Research Office (together with non-USyd person Glenn Horrocks) got up to win the 6-hour Paddy Pallin rogaine yesterday. The event (which involves navigating around an area of bushland looking for small orange flags – does that sound like your kind of fun?) was held in Brisbane Water National Park just north of the Hawkesbury and featured some superb clifftop views and some great mossy creeks and gullies. Jacqui also competed, steering a couple of novice rogainers around the course, and A/Prof. Gareth Denyer was involved as one of the team that set and checked the course over the last couple of months.
