| simmo: | There was discussion about marathon times a few months ago after Hanny won the Melbourne Marathon.
World of O today has news of two fast runs by Scandinavian orienteers: Marten Bostrom (Finland) 29:16 for 10,000m at Palo Alto, and Emil Wingstedt (Sweden) 1:06:41 to take 3rd place in the Norwegian Half-Marathon Championships in Frederikstad. |

| simmo: | Swiss orienteers are running too! Daniel Hubmann and Matthias Merz ran 14:44 and 14:52 for 5000m at a track meeting in Zurich. |

| Wyatt: | Don't hang up your shoes yet urthbuoy. Marten may be fast, but he can be out-navigated http://sandiegoorienteering.org/Results/2008/0119_... |

| j-man: | Marten did run a marathon 6 days before he posted that result. I think he may have been dogging it intentionally. |

| candyman: | Mårten Boström has also been 9th at WOC, won a Bronze medal at the European Champs, a silver medal at Nordics and a silver medal at the Junior World Champs. So his 'navigation' obviously isn't too bad... |

| jjcote: | Hey, if Wyatt has bragging rights, he's entitled to use them! |

| simmo: | Pretty good times - will he be running for germany at WOC?
On another tack Karl, have you made any good films lately? |

| nightfox: | Think he's aiming for the olympics this year actually. Think he's okay from his (last) injury now and training hard again. Yeah, he's sooo fast.
You're welcome =) No, I sold my camera 2006 in lack of time, but now I'm responsible for making entertaining daily movies from JWOC (for the runners self to watch the day after) here in Gothenburg. But youtube and my blog make it possible to upload and show all what i've done, so when I got the time I will split and upload everything I've done for you all to see!! =) |

| bubo: | Alexander Lubina actually won one of the qualifying heats at a World Cup Sprint in Dresden 2004 and then placed 16th in the final (3 seconds behind Emil Wingstedt and beating Thierry Gueorgiou). |

| simmo: | Bostrom ran 2:18:50 in the Ottawa marathon last weekend. He was trying to run 2:15 to make the Finnish team for Beijing. While he's not doing much orienteering at the moment, it will be interesting to see if he's in the Finnish team at WOC this year. |
