Athlete Bio (http://www.athletebio.com) is a new (non-profit) website called, that lets athletes create an online sporting biography, combining a brief personal profile with a detailed record of their competition results.
So far 780 people have registered, ranging from club-level athletes to World Champions. Orienteering is the latest sport to be added to the site, so anyone reading this, whatever their ability, is encouraged to sign-up (it's free!) and add their stats to the database. And please let me know if you have any suggestions for new features or ways the site can be improved.

Glad you like it. Let me know if you'd like any more features adding. For example, would it be worth letting people specify the event distance rather than just the name (eg "8km long" rather than just "long")? http://www.athletebio.com/search.php?sport=orienteering

That could be quite difficult; the challenge of orienteering is that the next race will always be different (even within same 'distance category') as terrain can be so varied.
