This winter, Walton Chasers are planning a Trail Challenge, which is a series of running events, designed as an introduction to orienteering, and will get you finding your own way between a sequence of points, while following the trails and paths around Cannock Chase. No experience is necessary, and the first 3 events are free to enter – so come along and have a go! The start and finish will be next to the Marquis Drive Visitor Centre, not far from the Park Run. All the details here: Trail Challenge Winter 21
29 Chasers competed for the club at at CompassSport Trophy final, which was held at Tankersley near Sheffield. It was a great turnout, and despite some key runners being unable to run, we achieved an excellent 5th place (out of 14 teams). This is the only inter-club competition in the calendar and is great for club spirit – over 800 runners came from around the country, and it was great to see so many out there.
Our points scorers today are below and the full results can be found on the SYO website. John Robinson – 95 points Andrew Yeates – 95 points Olivia Stamp – 94 points Tammy Short – 93 points Holly Hughes – 91 points Rebecca Hind – 90 points Dan Findlay-Robinson – 90 points Henry Webb – 89 points Carol Dredge – 89 points Sarah Hind – 89 points Fraser Stamp – 88 points Cath Williams – 85 points Simon Webb – 84 points
Although these were the people who scored on the day, everyone that finished will have contributed to the overall result by pushing down the scorers from other clubs that finished behind them. Great job all – sterling work!
