WOC Report #7 – the Relay
By ONZ Online Coordinator - Roger Woodroofe - 14 Jul 2014 - Blog Post

Another long, wet day at Campomulo but in the end a guaranteed promotion from Group 3 to Group 2 for the women, who finished 18th, and a 23rd place finish for the men which, as for the women, was an improvement of 3 places on last year in Finland. Once again the courses were  rugged […]

WOC Report #6 – the Middle Distance
By ONZ Online Coordinator - Roger Woodroofe - 12 Jul 2014 - Blog Post

The Middle Distance at WOC is a bit like the 1500 m at the Olympics – probably considered by men as the blue ribbon event – generally the most technical of the terrains and this year at an altitude of 1500-1700 m in the forest and alpine meadows of Campomulo. What’s more the sun shone […]

Lizzie Ingham Blog – Race Review – Sprint WOC
By ONZ Online Coordinator - Roger Woodroofe - 11 Jul 2014 - Blog Post

Lizzie Ingham has posted a race review of the Sprint races on her personal blog: Although the official proposal of having separate sprint WOC and forest WOCs may have been shot down, with this year’s schedule I’ve ended up pretty much having two separate WOCs anyway. Last weekend was all about the sprints, with the […]

Thus Matt and Greta set out today […]

WOC Report #4 – the Sprint Relay – a wet, wet, evening in Trento
By ONZ Online Coordinator - Roger Woodroofe - 8 Jul 2014 - Blog Post

It rained and it rained and it rained, the cobbles and shiny pavements of the old town of Trento getting slippier and slippier and the temperature dropping from about 30C at the start to barely 20 at the finish.

WOC Report #3
By ONZ Online Coordinator - Roger Woodroofe - 7 Jul 2014 - Blog Post

The sprint – a long, long, hot day that started at 6am so we could get the specially laid on ferry to Burano Island for the qualifying heats. Sadly these were not exactly a great success from the NZ point of view, with only Lizzie running to form and cruising into the final in 6th place in her heat. Greta was right up with the pace in heat 3, but a 1 minute mistake was the death knell for her qualifying chances, and Imogene was steady but always just off the necessary pace.

WOC Report #2
By Catriona McBean - 5 Jul 2014 - Blog Post

And so to Venice… or rather our accommodation in Lido di Jesolo, where we arrived yesterday afternoon. Think four streets parallel to a long, long beach, wall-to-wall hotels, souvenir shops and amusement arcades, and you can imagine that it’s not really the kind of place that you would expect elite athletes to be hanging out in! The beach itself is covered by row after row of sunshades and loungers. Nonetheless this is our home for 3 nights, as dictated by the WOC organizers, for the first individual event, the sprint.
