sow :: over 200 Brits attend
While the the O Ringen goes on in Sweden 3,500 people have made their way to Zermatt to orienteer under the impressive shadow of the Matterhorn. Swiss efficienxy prevails with this very well organised week of Orienteering with everything included allowing competitors just enter, turn up and enjoy the week. At the end of the week there was just one British winner - Judith Powell on D65 - but many other good performances from other British runners.
