 The
UK Cup events are Britain's premier orienteering
competitions and are chosen to challenge
a competitor's orienteering skills and fitness.
The series is held during the spring season
with races spread over the whole of the
UK. These events are a great chance for
you to test yourself against the very best.
Congratulations
to Ed Nash and Helen Winskill, winners of
the UK Cup 2004! Winskill won the
league with an impressive and unbeatable
6 wins giving her a 300 point total. Nash
wasn't far behind with a total of 290 points.

Hard won victories for Stevenson and Wootton in the JK
|
Jamie Stevenson had to work harder than expected to win overall after Ed Nash took the win in the Middle distance on Saturday. Nash fought hard on Sunday's classic to secure the third spot just behind surprise success Nick Morgan. Morgan, who is based in Norway, ran a strong race to finish just 2 minutes behind Stevenson.
In the women's race, Hannah Wootton was dominant for the weekend after a 2 minute win in the Middle, but came close to throwing it all away with a big mistake after the spectator control on Sunday. This left Helen Winskill to win Sunday's race and take 2nd overall ahead of Jo Stevenson, back from Sodertalije for the weekend. |
