Bennelong couple Marina Iskhakova and Fedor Iskhakov put on a superb event in staging the second annual NSW DuO championships at Castle Hill on Sunday.

Our Russian hosts were on site at the crack of dawn setting out controls across the vast expanse of the showground and Fred Caterson Reserve, and were applauded for their efforts in setting great foot O and MTBO courses at the one event. 

"Thanks Marina and Fedor - most enjoyable Duo event ever," gushed Cath Chalmers, winner of the women's Hard 2 course.

"I second that," added Newcastle's Rob Prentice, a close second in men's Hard 2.

Congratulations to our winners, and to all participants - please spread the word about this format. It's compact, enjoyable adventure racing!
