Plea to selectors

[i-pod]

Second at BUSA and fastest in the sprint at JOK; how much more does a girl have to do to catch the selector's eye?

[Becks]

Seconded!

how about do it on some areas which require orienteering???

controversial, but considering that the world cups in the UK (next year is it?) will be down south in similar areas to BUSA then i think she probably deserves at least an invitation to a squad weekend or something?

[distracted]

Ouch - that's a bit harsh. Just look at the quality of the field in the women's event at BUSA, and see who she beat. I don't think you can say Longmoor is an area which doesn't require orienteering, the path networks in pasts were especially confusing and you had to slow down to make sure you weren't thrown off course by them. It's certainly an area where you can make mistakes if you are going too quickly.

for World Cup next year im sure she will have an excellent chance in getting in the team, she certainly knows how to orienteer on these types of areas.

however, seen the maps of this years WOC???

has anyone ever noticed how the really world class orienteers never really feel the need to waste their time criticising other peoples abilities? they just get on with their own orienteering and quest for improvement. jamie is a good example, you'll struggle to find a nicer bloke.

mark take note.

Amazingly, no. any chance us mere mortals could?

[mharky]

someone put them on a website, dont know who, or the address, i think it was linked onto peels message board a long time ago.
if no one can remeber where they are i can scan in them and put them on the Gallery

Has anyone really notcied how the really world class orienteers dont go from being the best junior in the country to a fat beer monster in SE Asia.

i just model myself on Superman, a fine upstanding member of society

[Mrs H.]

But Mark, Have you got a set of posed photographs on your web site?- I think I will have to vote for SB - unless you can come up with something!

[mharky]

How about this?

Im sure Winskill picked up on my vanity a while back when he was getting jealous of my spanking Tuna kit and running gogs
