The weather in Tasmania has been hot, but not quite hot enough to prevent the first major events of the Oceania carnival - sprint, relay and middle-distance. Big Feet have put in some great performances and have collected a fair amount of winners fudge between them.

2014 saw the Big Pink Rankings finish with Simon Uphill and Josh Blatchford tied at the top and kiwi Lizzie Ingham just pipping Taswegian Hanny Alston as top female orienteer.
Josh has been rebuilding fitness after some gnarly leg surgery and his middle and short distance form is starting to look solid - he rounded off the year by defeating reigning Big Foot Sprints champion Christian Tingström to take out the ultra-sprint finale of the Christmas 5 days.

Thanks to Simon - a massive effort on Christmas Eve, rewarded by the great turnout of people in good spirits. The big chocolate went overseas to Christian Tingström of Switzerland and to Viktoria Ernstsson of Sweden. Well done guys.

NSWOA president Greg Barbour will be the only Big Foot to represent New Zealand in the Australia-New Zealand challenge to be held in Tasmania in January, running against club-mates Tracy Marsh, Cath Chalmers, Paul Marsh, Eoin Rothery, Michael Burton and Andy Simpson.
Asked about the Kiwiness of Greg, his M45 team-mate Bill Edwards said "He's as Kiwi as I am eh, to be sure, to be sure. Bro"
Bring it on and don't go half pie !

You may have noticed several things missing from the web-site, probably including your logon.
The version of the software we use to run the web-site has been terminally broken by hackers and its not clear whether they have got into the Big Foot site or not. Given the attack is estimated to affect millions of sites, its pretty clear that the Big Foot site would be top of the list, so the site has to be rebuilt. To read more - see this BBC article.
