Revival of the FittestDoes Orienteering make you run faster, or are faster runners naturally selected to become orienteers?
It is striking that out of 350 participants at the Wimpole Parkrun on 8th September, 3 of the top 6 age graded performances (and 4 of the top 11) were achieved by WAOC members.
8 WAOC members in total are listed in the results, 6 of whom finished in the fastest 50% of finishers.
From which we would love to be able to conclude that joining WAOC is good for your PB. We can't be certain of this of course, but for anyone out there looking to improve, it surely must be worth a try....
