Charlie Wetham (SLOW) 10 km winner and juniors (2 km Mini race)
Planner / Organiser Comments
The mini race was
excellent. A big enough field to make it exciting and (the bit I
was worried about) none of them had seen an orienteering map more
than a couple of times before - and many of them not at all. That
they all made it round the course successfully and in a fast time
is an amazing tribute to the power of group decision-making,
assisted by a few guiding hands. Key features were:
The senior races had a
more select (i.e. smaller) field, but still plenty enough to make
it fun for all. Charlie Whetham and Jeff Green vied for the lead
the whole way on the 10k, until Charlie’s superior speed
finally told. Complete novice Sandra Blenkinsop took the ladies
prize and remained coy about who she was following; I just know
Colin Gray can run faster than that.
The 6k race was a
runaway win for regular Mike Elliot. Tyrone Weller’s second
place may have been helped by support from his scout group, as he
probably heard them all the way across the park!! We were also
very impressed by the international flavour of the field. I hope
they are equally impressed by our spelling.
The next race is at Box
Hill on 3rd April (
