Siinä kerrotaan mm. viestien perustamisesta, alkuvaiheista, tärkeistä henkilöistä matkan varrella ja tietysti kustakin viestistä parhaine tuloksineen, kuvineen ja karttoineen. Nyt tehty ’jatko-osa’ kuvaa lähinnä kirjan jälkeisiä vuosia. Koska toivomuksia kirjankin vuosien lisäkartoista ja kaikista tuloksista on tullut runsaasti, on tähän pyritty vastaamaan. Aivan kaikkia tuloksia ei kuitenkaan alkuvuosilta ole löytynyt. Näiden lisäksi sivuilla esitellään jälleen eräitä avainhenkilöitä sekä esitettyjen toiveiden mukaisesti myös eräitä tausta-asioita. Viestien kuvauksissa kilpailujen selostusten osuus on kirjaa laajempi, koska 1 sivun tilarajoitusta ei ole. Jatko-osa ilmestyy kirjanomaisena netti-versiona. Siitä jokainen voi vapaasti tulostaa itse ei-kaupallisiin tarkoituksiin joko kaikki tai vain haluamansa osat ja vaikka sidotuttaa ne kirjaksi. Tähän on päädytty lähinnä taloudellisista syistä. Painettuna Tarina II:n kustannus olisi noussut niin korkeaksi erittäinkin, kun kokemusten valossa sen painos olisi ollut pieni, että sellaisen tekeminen ei ollut järkevää. Projekti on kaikkiaan kestänyt kolmisen vuotta. Kun aiotut ammattikirjoittajat eivät lopulta odottelujen jälkeenkään kiireiltään ehtineet kilpailukuvauksia kirjoittaa eikä vuoden

August 1999 Internet Auftritt rund um das Schweizer Team Marcel Meier / Peter Mohn WOC 99 - News Schweiz bleibt hinter den Skandinaviern, erzielt aber viele Ehrenplätze. Die Schweizer Bilanz der WM in Schottland wird durch die Bronzemedaille von Alain Berger im Klassichen Einzellauf überstrahlt, wo das gesamte Männerteam eine starke Leistung bot und grosse Erwartungen für das Staffelrennen weckte. Der vierte Staffel-Rang ist sicher solide, wer das Rennen mitverfolte weiss, dass viel mehr dringelegen wäre. Enttäuschend verlief der Kurzstrecken-Lauf aus Schweizer Sicht. Dem Frauenteam waren im Vorfeld der WM grosse Medaillenchancen in allen Disziplinen eingeräumt worden. Trotz etlicher solider Leistungen mit Rängen unter den ersten zehn blieb aber ein Exploit aus. Der fünfte Rang in der Staffel war etwas unglücklich. Erfreulich sicher die Bilanz der WM-Neulinge Simone Luder, Käthi Widler und Matthias Niggli, die sich alle sicher für die Finalläufe qualifizierten und im Bereiche ihrer Möglichkeiten liefen.

  • The Auckland Blabbermouth
    THE AUCKLAND BLABBERMOUTH OCTOBER 1998 HORSFORD HEATH Scale 1:10000 The Monthly Newsletter for the Auckland area orienteering clubs: Waikato and Auckland Campus Orienteers Auckland Orienteering Club NorthWest Orienteering Club Counties Manukau Orienteering Club SHAUN'S SAY Well, that month flew by. No sooner had I finished the September Issue and I had to start the next one. This magazine is very big, and full of heaps of different articles. Thank you to all those that have contributed, keep it up! The reason for the large size of this mag is due to these people's contributions. It makes my job a breeze. In this issue there is a special report on the World Cup series that has recently finished. One of the reasons that the magazine is a little late is because I was waiting for the last event to happen so that I could include the results. The team was very good at keeping everyone informed of how they were going by sending regular emails to a huge list of people. The report in this mag is snippets of these reports for those that haven't received the emails. I managed to stir up a bit of a wasp nest with my editorial in the last magazine, where I questioned the need to fly NZOF executives around the country for meetings. Included in this mag is the NZOF reply to my questions. Did you all see the orienteering on TV3 last Thursday. WACO was the club of the week on the programme called The Game. Some more good exposure for orienteering.
