Jenny Enderby and Alex Massey have taken out the Newcastle Orienteer of the Year trophies yet again.
It's at least the fifth or sixth time this pair have finished ahead of the field; in 2020 there were 6 events in the OY series due to covid taking out the period from April-July.
Winners of the other classes were:
Very Easy: Baxter Peel
Easy: Ulrika Sandberg
Short Moderate: Sally Quill
Long Moderate: Warren Quilty
Short Hard: Erika Enderby
Medium Hard: Glenn Burgess
With infection rates reduced to single or at worst very low double digits, restrictions were lifted on community sports in late July to allow club members the opportunity to participate.
A big thank you to David Kitchener for rejigging the Newcastle calendar several times, the landowners who allow us onto their properties, all the helpers and participants.
The club does a lot of heavy lifting in NSW and in 2021 will host the QB III weekend in June as well as the Australian MTBO champs in September.
More immediately, Newcastle have their second street warm-up series at Lakelands on Wednesday. They are using the free MapRunF app for all street events.
