Results of our 4 hour roller ski race 21/10/11

After a slight technical hitch, results of Saturday's 4 hour roller ski race are now available. 

For the first time it was a Polish 1-2-3 in the senior men's race with Jacek Staron in first place while Fern Cates was first senior female and joint 3rd in the overall race.

The event was held in probably the windiest conditions ever with gusts challenging everyone's balance so congratulations go to everyone who took part!
