Autumn Series event 2, Beacon Fell

With well over 100 competitors this could be the most popular SROC local event yet! A good mix of seasoned orienteers and newcomers/returners enjoyed the perfect conditions at Beacon Fell today. Results are om-line here, and RouteGadget here. There was one item of lost property not yet accounted for: a compass was handed in by a competitor who found it somewhere on the fell.

OMM Elite Win for SROC Member!

 Philip Rutter, running with Finlay Wild, won the Elite OMM last weekend in Glen Artney!

The results are here https://www.sportident.co.uk/results/OMM/2024/OMM/

It was a closely-fought battle. They were in second place on the first day, only 1 minute behind the leaders. On the second day they overtook and ended up 1^st overall by less than 2 minutes in 11 and a half hours of racing.

This is an amazing result in the UK oldest Mountain Marathon.

Congratulations to other SROCers too for great results, including Matt Cochrane, Karen Nash and partner Rowena Browne and Calvin Routledge. Apologies to others who I will have missed.
