Last Saturday the continued good weather saw an excellent turn out with just over 100 orienteers contesting the 15th event in the Bendigo Bush Classic series at Pearces road Mandurang.
A large field of Twenty-three competitors ran course 1 with Bryan Keely winning by over 3 minutes from Ben Goonan and David Brownridge. It was a fast run by Bryan with an average speed of just over 5 minutes/km around the 6.9 km course. Louis Cameron continued his good form and retained the family bragging rights, winning Course 2 by almost 6 minutes from Nic Cherry and dad Andrew Cameron.
The largest field of the day ran Course 3 where Jimmy Cameron won by an impressive 8 minutes from his cousin Henry Cameron and the experienced Phil Robertson. Amoz Walz headed a field of 15 on Course 4 to win by just over a minute from Cameron Bell and the improving Karina Cherry. Eight runners tackled Course 5 which was won by Torren Arthur from Mason Arthur, both from Melbourne.
It was great to see over 20 competitors travel to Bendigo to take advantage of the great weather and interesting courses set by new course setter Lorraine Leversha who did a terrific job.
Thanks to all those who helped out on the day.
