4 Dear competitors! I would like to welcome you on behalf of the organizing committee of IMEP2013 at the competition. Two years ago, taking over the IMEP organizing, the event director Zdeněk Blabla realized the size of the task to organize IMEP2013. Big task, but not impossible. The 3 rd bulletin of International Championships of European Police Officers 2013 that you are holding is a proof that we managed to approach to the very finish of our effort. The sport programme (in my humble opinion) corresponds to the importance of the event. The relay race is situated to a site where a famous Czech military leader Jan Žižka was born. His statue is going to watch all the important moments of the relay race. The long race takes place in a typical south bohemian terrain, in a various pine forest near the village Včelná. Finally, the sprint SOLathlon race uses the municipal exhibition grounds, special thanks go to its directors for their cooperation. Finding the proper compromise between speed running in flat terrain, proper orientation between the exhibition halls and a necessity of an accurate shooting, that will be a real challenge for all competitors. We should not forget the social aspect of our event, IMEP is also a meeting for o-runners of the whole continent, starting new friendships. We are very happy to welcome you in České Budějovice and wish your satisfaction with both our event and your sport achievements. Radim Hošek member of the IMEP2013 organizing commitee 4

13 Shooting of the shooting place. Be careful about the control codes, sometimes the controls are close to each other. Expected winning time is 18 minut including a errorless shooting. Other info in the next item. Every class has two shooting rounds having five targets. After running the first part of the course, all classes come to control 101, from where they are lead by a lane to the shooting place. A referee assigns him/her the shooting stand. After five attempts the automat shows the number of penalty laps, the runner is obliged to run immediately after shooting. The penalty lap is 120m long and is equipped with control 100 (two SI units available). It is necessary to punch this control at every passing by. It means errorless shooting = 1x punching C100, 1 error = 2x, 2 errors = 3x etc. Every competitor is responsible for running the appropriate number of penalty laps. After last punching of C100 the competitor is leaving for the second part of the course. Then he/she comes to C102, from which a lane takes him/her to the second shooting round. After the shooting (and possibly also penalty laps) the last part of the course is waiting and then the finish. Be careful when leaving the knot control 100! This is how the situation near the shooting place will look like on the map. In the (not very likely) case of full occupation of the shooting stands, the waiting time will be subtracted from the competitor s time. Starting bibs Finish Training shooting stand will be available at the arena. The entrance to the shooting place as audience is possible after running own race. Competitors are running with the starting bibs, that correspond to their starting time. The bibs are to be taken at the start at self-service.

14 Warning Map place. At the finish line it is necessary to punch the FINISH / CÍL SportIdent unit. The last control has the code 150 and is (as well as the finish) equipped with only one SI unit. Read out you SI chip after the finish. Then the access to the shooting place to the spectators area is enabled. The finish is ca. 500m distant from the arena. In the arena only the sprint race finish is situated. Beer festival takes place at the exhibition grounds in Saturday evening.
