WOC Long final - who's going to win?

[andy]

Scott's got nothing to lose now, he might as well work with nordberg and they can push each other..

[Becks]

Scott's not making friends on World of O - but it's a good sign for the future that he has the speed in this kind of terrain. Definitely more to come.

It looks as though it will be 4th for Scott

[andy]

Scott in, 4 secs behind millegard, will be interesting to see what's made of his run!

[andy]

It looks as though it will be 4th for Scott

i'd say 5th, Gueorgiou and Lundanes ahead

edit: wrong name

Bit lower than that I think - 7th-ish more like.

[bendover]

i hate all this 'cheating' talk about scott. i bet its from people who have never actually run an elite orienteering race. such a bunch of bullshit.

[andy]

6th and podium, nice!

[Becks]

Oh Gonon! What a way to lose out on a bronze!

1 Lundanes NOR
2 Norberg NOR

5 Millegard SWE
6 Scott Fraser GBR
Podium for Scotia

[EddieH]

Well the podium for Scott is fantastic.

I cannot see how omeone is supposed not to keep in touch - are they supposed to deliberately take a worse route choice, or to slow down to let someone out of sight?

It is clear that 5 runners benefitted from Hubmann, but the same applies. I'll bet Jon D is not complaining because the Belarusian beat him that way.

Kiril (BUL) who was with JD can run the hind legs off a donkey. Ask Mahrky!!

[Laura]

wowee nice one scott!
