Nicolas performs well at O-ringen

Irish mens champion Nicolas Simonin had some storming runs at the worlds largest orienteering festival, The Swedish O-ringen last week.

Running in the mens elite group as a first year senior Nick finished the 5 day competition strongly.

He was placed mid table in a very respectable 37th place, alongside some of the biggest names in World orienteering.

Lets all hope Nicks good form continues as he heads off to Trondheim next week to join the rest of the Irish seniors competing at the World champs 2010!
