Police & Fire Games – continued… As our local orienteers found, the courses were quite physically demanding which highlighted the high fitness levels of the Police and Fire games competitors with Szymon Lawecki of Poland winning the ‘Open Mens’ 6.9km course in 46min24secs. This compared quite well with our best local runners on the day, Andrew McComb and Vanessa Round doing the same course in 60:29 and 52:55 respectively.
