CompassSport Trophy 2013

Good news – despite being a couple of runners short Roxburgh Reivers have qualified for the 2013 final of the CompassSport Trophy, finishing in 3rd place behind FVO and Clyde.  With a full team I reckon we would have given Clyde a run for their money.  The event at Birsemore was actually a bit of a disappointment due to recent thinning, deep snow on the top and some strange planning in places.

Keep the weekend of 19/20 October free for the final in the Forest of Dean which is generally very nice and runnable.  Routegadget for a previous event is HERE

1st  FVO   1274 points

Results for Tweedbank on 8/12/12

Results from the event on Saturday at Tweedbank are HERE

The icy conditions underfoot  were an additional challenge for this urban event but most seemed to cope well.  It was pleasing to see some new faces joining in and we hope you’ll return over the next few months as we visit some of our more rural locations – next up is Lanton, near Jedburgh on January 19th.

 

PS from Robin:

if you thought Tweedbank was icy on Saturday, the TAY event at Pitmedden next day could have been held on skates. Parking on forest roads impossible, so entailed a 2.5km/210m walk from Abernethy to the start – everyone well warmed up for mass start. Even paths in amogst the trees were icy, so rather than follow paths/tracks, they were best avoided. Good event, and another excellent lunch to follow!
