Tollymore/Meelmore results

Over 80 orienteers enjoyed fair weather and endured tough courses in the last race of the 2011 LongO series at Tollymore today.

Some very impressive times were recorded. Congratulations to todays Long course winners Seamus O’Boyle and Ciara Largey who lead a pack of 20 intrepid competitors on terrain stretching to the farthest reaches of the Meelmore map.

The Middle distance course was arguably the most challenging with a very high climb to length ratio taking its toll on the strong field of runners – well done to all who finished and as usual there was a strong tussle for the top spot amongst Irelands up and coming junior squad members. This time LVO’s Jack Millar came out on top, whilst CNOC’s Bernie O’Boyle made it two wins in a row and claimed the overall series prize for the womens Middle course.

Short course runners tested their map reading skills more than usual today. The short course map was printed at 1:15000 scale! A strong field of 35 took to the trails and forest of Tollymore with Gordon Fallis and Bridget Lawlor fastest today.

Full report and series results to follow.

Split time results now available on winsplits and splitsbrowser. Routegadget will be up soon.
