Top performances from SROC members at VHI and BSOC

The weekend of 17&18 November saw two major competitions held at opposite ends of the UK. The Veteran Home International at Pitlochry was won by England, including SROC stars Julian Lailey 1st M60 and Quentin Harding 2nd M45. Full results are here. Meanwhile in Dorset the British Schools Orienteering Championship was beset by bad weather, and results are still provisional on Sunday evening. There were some strong performances by SROC juniors and Chris Nash won B8 running 5.4 mins/km! Katrin Harding finished 2nd in G10, Zoe Harding was 4th in G8 and John Ockenden was 4th in B9. There was also a World Schools selection race on Saturday, in which Matt Nash finished 5th on M14 and Katrin and Zoe were 2nd and 4th respectively on W14, so perhaps we may look forward to sending some club members to the World Schools next year (in Scotland). BSOC results are here, or view the BSOA website.
