Sprint vs traditional Long/Middle orienteering races

Alistair Posted: 23 November 2012, 5:39 PM   I have yet to understand why we are not holding a long race in the coming WC races? (in green native forest especially to stuff the foreigners!!!) Pressure from the IOF I guess, well, time to push back a little - sign this if you agree: http://real-orienteers.toonmelis.com/ [This doesn't mean you dislike sprint races   mcroxford Posted: 24 November 2012, 12:08 AM   In green native forest like? Like the SI Champs at St Arnaud? Come along and try some orienteering in classic New Zealand scrub/bush in late January. (Gratuitous plug!)   Jamie Posted: 24 November 2012, 12:50 PM   ohh yeah, now we are talking. All the orienteering coming up and this one excites me the most!
