More than 200 happy orienteers celebrated a return to community sport over the weekend with runs in three different terrains.

On Saturday morning, the Bold Horizons crew put on a cracking 5km sprint at Hyde Park in the Sydney CBD.

Junior world championship selection Ewan Shingler (Big Foot) blitzed the fast, flat course in just under 19 minutes! Younger sister Nea, who was also picked for JWOC, was the fastest woman in 22m22s.

The last section in Cook and Philip Park had a couple of tiny traps for the tired/unwary/rusty who failed to check their control descriptions. But it was just so good to be out doing proper events again.
 

In Port Macquarie, our newest club resumed operations with hilly line courses on their Tacking Point map. The Hogs' IT guru James Stevenson was quickest on the Long course and Torgrim Soeyland fastest on the Moderate.

We noticed an entry on the Easy course called "Team Happy dragged away from devices" - we can all relate to that!

And outside Orange, Goldseekers had their final winter bush event for 2021 at Ophir South.

They start their sprint twilight series this Friday at Elephant Park.
