Australian rogaining champ needs new team mate

Hi,
Thanks to illness, Helen Robinson, who is the 2006 Australian female rogaining champion, and who also won the 2007 female veteran category, needs a new team mate.
Helen is alive and well and training hard. Unfortunately, one of her team mates has had to drop out due to work commitments, and the other team mate is recuperating from serious illness.
Helen would ideally like to enter the female section.
If you know of someone, or if you would like to do a team swap (since the ill team mate, me, will be there and would love to "go for a walk"), please do let us know. Many thanks. Jane

Hello Helen and Jane,
I just phoned to a close friend, strong runner and team member Nina Heiskanen, 30+, who would be thrilled to race in Estonia. She is an active member of our adventure racing team (check www.kolumbus.fi/teampenalty). She raced 4 weeks ago in Russia in European Rogaining 24h Championships in mixed class and got silver medal. She has some orienteering background but I believe you, Helen, would hold the map most of the time.

If you are still interested, please contact her:

phone +358405225299

or me:

See you in Karula

Dear Lauri Leppik !

Helen Robinson (team N 349) can not my e-mail during 2 weeks. And she invites me in a team again and again. I do not understand, why she has not registered me (I has sent 4 letters to her). Please, contact her and inform on my consent.

HI Larissa
Helen has emailed you also without success. I will let Helen know.
Does anyone know of a slow person since I too would like to take part but need a non competitive team due to recovering from illness.
Larissa, we are in Moscow at the moment and will go to St Petersburg on Tuesday night. See you at the event.
