After a slow start due to some technical problems with the race list and some rain the annual Ravens Club National got of to a cracking start.
With over 70 participants coming from all corners of the country the rain held off in the afternoon to allow most people to post their best times. The course set by Lee Bennett was both technical and fast for those with the currage to throw caution to the wind. After a few minor spillls all competitor skied the course well with only a handful not being able to ski the full length.
Top of the time sheet for the ladies was our very own Franscesca Lee who posted a personal time of 14.35 closely followed in third by Millie Jackson in an excellent 14. 68 and then Lois in a wonderful 15.66. For the men Adam O'Marra came in a credible 4th in 13.39 and Rory Farren 5th in 13.64.
For the Masters, Claude won on overall consuistency with a 14.18 with Ian Jackson coming in second Master with a 14.16 but skiing out on the second run. Full race results at Britski (http://www.britski.org/12sundcnres.pdf)
Also bring up the rear were Michael Dent and Richard Weir with respectable PBs of 15.02 and 15.97, well done you guys!
AND FINALLY.....well done to all the organisers and helpers behind the scenes. Your committee have been planning the fine detail of this for months and, with a few exceptions, everything was successful.
Next Race - "British Dry Slope Championships" on 7th July 2012, get your skates on!! (Also on Britski)
