| 10 April 2009 | Media Release 3 | THE "mystery man" at the New Zealand Orienteering Championships, Taranaki dairy farmer Karl Dravitzki, took the national sprint title in Auckland today - a remarkable achievement considering it was his first serious orienteering event in six months. Wellington university student Lizzie Ingham continued her dominant form to take the elite women's title - thanks to being able to just squeeze through a narrow gap between college buildings on her chosen route. If it had been any tighter, the 20-year-old reckoned, she'd have been forced to back-track...and lose valuable time. |
