The World Orienteering Championships are underway in Lausanne, Switzerland, kicking off today with the sprint qualifications and finals. Ali Crocker (pictured, courtesy of Eddie Bergeron) qualified third in her heat and ended up 20th in the final - an excellent result! Competition continues tomorrow with long distance qualification and on Monday with middle distance qualification. Eddie, our neighbor from SVO, is slated to be in action in both of those so be sure to look in on the US team blog [2] to see how he and his teammates are faring.
