Dorchester & Clevedon urban O
Andrew & Graham go for hat-tricks
Our most two prominent urban runners were aiming for three league wins in a row, Andrew Page heading south to Dorchester and Graham Hartley northwards to Clevedon. Andrew won and now leads the Southern urban league table in the men's junior category. Graham had a very close race!
Sarum Moonraker relays
Following the herd
Four club teams competed at Dinton Park (National Trust) near Salisbury and the A and B teams finished in the top third! The format was very different to Ashton Court last week- very little waiting around and constant running in the midday heat. Plus dodging a herd of cows. Results
Schools festival

The rain didn't dampen the mood in the annual mass participation event at the marines' Taunton base. A great turnout of club helpers got the 850 children on their way and gain their first experience of orienteering

Training at Quants
Buckland Wood's hidden wonders
We were lucky enough to have training three weeks' running at Quants, the delightful eastern part of Buckland Wood. The woods there conceal a variety of bizarre, almost randomly placed structures. Never have our "map walks" and bearings exercises been so interesting, wondering what we'll encounter next
Ashton Court relays
Juniors rise to the challenge
Thanks to our members investing in our green and yellow club shirts, the rolling wooded lawns of the stately home had a highly visible Quantock presence on Sunday, during Bristol OK's annual relay.
Presentations & AGM
& an uplifting talk
Many of those competing at the club championships joined us afterwards at the COACH building for a buffet, a video presentation and an awards ceremony. While the AGM was taking place, some of the children were given the opportunity to fly kite surfer Ray Toomer's kites on Longrun Meadow.
Ashton Court relays
Sunday 25 June
Sunday will see another mass exodus from Somerset...a staggering 30 members have signed up for a team at Sunday's relays, the day after the Club Champs. And to think we were struggling to get two teams together a week or so ago. You sure you can all handle two days on the trot?
Poole Town race
SEOUL, 18 June
Great results for Sam & Andrew, winning their classes and Jacob a confident 4th! Every second counts, as Andrew won by just one second. The junior course action took place in a glorious park.
