Finish, Alvie

The run in at Alvie Home Farm. Taken during Spey 2007, a multi-day orienteering event attracting over 4000 competitors from all over the world. While this was probably the largest sports event in Scotland this year, with many World class athletes attending, as usual it received no coverage. This is a common fate of sports that have not been chosen for the Olympic Games.
