A rather dismal night, although we weren't at the dismals, resulted in a clean sweep of winners for MEC with Craig and Lyn winning the long route and Jayne and Craig winning the short route.
Many thanks to Keiran and the crew for an excellent night with superb food, we will be back! (with a different route)

Thank you all for your support of my first "proper" orienteering event, it seemed to go ok (except I lost valeries time) and I realised near the end that I didn't know if anyone was still out there, apologies if you were!! (I will fix that next time)
Well done to richard and katy for 2 solo wins, simon and jackie for 1 solo win, lynn and john and lorna and john for sharing the pairs victories. Thanks to mia, hannah, beatrice and lawrence for getting your parents safely to the finish.
For all you first timers remember to check out the essex stragglers orienteering society website, many events for children and beginners throught the year

An excellent trail from a new pub and in a new area (for me) and from the number of paths that we didn't use it looks like there could be a few more trails here (take note Clare!)
A narrow win on his return to running for Dan and a well deserved win for Sarah in the short event, Jon and Melissa were easy winners in the long event

Bill won comfortably in the end from John and Ben who both moved up in the final event, Vicky and Lucy both move up as Sarah dropped back due to a late start and a finish in the dark. I hope you all enjoyed the chocolate, although I seem to have some left ... now what can I do with that?

A huge field of runners took to the two routes on offer, some rather sneaky instructions lead a few astray, with two passes through the first wood on the same path (with different instructions) and two passes through the second wood on different paths. Apologies to those who didn't hear that the tape had been replaced by flour. Well done to the long route winners Allen and Vicky and the short route winners Ian and Anna. Thanks to all the runners and walkers for their support over the series and a big thank you to our hosts Ellie and the team.

A big turnout on a sweltering day saw simon and will sharing the honours with meera on the shorter route whilst the battle for supremacy on the long route was settled by just 3 seconds in favour of antony over nicky.
many thanks to Sylvie and Diana for an excellent feast at the finish and to Jayne for help at registration

Another great night at the Western Arms, I will see if I can spruce the carpet up with some "shake 'n' vac" before the next one, unless anyone's got a spare bit of Wilton. On the long route Springfields Nicky won outright from Craig and on the short route Chris took the honours with Withams Jo an easy ladies winner.

Apologies for the inaccurate "SA" in the clearing, in my defence whoever cut the path changed the angle of exit from the bushes!
Allen and Lynn took the honours on the long course, the tiptree pair of Anne and Anthony won the short course, the humidity was high, as was the standard of cooking, many thanks to Dan and Ellie and the staff at the Western Arms arms for a great night, we'll be back for more next month!

A great turnout today in the spring sunshine at the Cattawade Crown, Brantham with 50 participants on the short course and 25 tackling the 9 mile route in the heat. A few found the second woodland section challenging – but that at least gave them longer to admire the stunning bluebells! Congratulations to Roy and Allen who were first home in the 5.5 and 9 miles respectively and to Jenny and Lynn who were the first lady finishers in each race.

an unusual day ... more women than men, more long route entries than short, at least we could depend on the weather.
several went astray in the last mile (times in italics), some made up the distance by running laps in the car park, excellent.
many thanks for your support (again) and also for the friendly staff at the venue, we will be back!

an excellent turnout given the poor weather during the day, good runs from everyone considering the underfoot conditions
unfortunately I have managed to lose the results, if you took your own time and would like it recorded please email me at events@midessexcasuals.org.uk (along with any abuse you feel fitting), when I have recovered from my embarrassment I will put together another trail and give you all free entry, many apologies, Dave. following are all the names I could remember and times as supplied by the runners, if your name is missing (and I think afew are) let me know as above
