JWOC – Long Distance Results

Today was the JWOC Long distance, with Neta Dafni and Guy Sabo (who was the last starter) running the race. Eran Segal was resting after 4 consecutive days of racing.
Neta had a good race, with a number of small mistakes, and her result was as good as hoped for. She ranked 82 of 117 finishers. Guy started well, but a mistake at the second spectator control, and another big mistake on the last loop, cost him dearly and he ranked 112 of 149 finishers. The split times show that he was 88th at control 24, so we can feel disappointed.
