JWOC 2026: Sprint Relay Results

It was another exciting day of racing today in the mixed sprint relay.

Courses were less technical but there were some decisive route choice legs and plenty of gaffling. Racing was fast and furious from the start.

GB1 (Emily Atkinson, Ewen Wilkinson, James Hammond and Jocie Hilton) finished 14th nation

GB2 (Daisy Rennie, Fin Selmer Duguid, Oliver Duncan and Lyra Medlock) were 36th overall, and GB3 (Heather High, Tommy Rollins, Finlay McLuckie & Ruth Gooch) finished 44th.

Performance of the day came from James Hammond who finished 6th on his leg. James said of his run, " The mixed Sprint Relay is the most fun event at JWOC. I was really motivated to have a clean and fast run and do the best I could for the team. I was really pleased with how my run went."

Tomorrow is the long race and the team are really excited to get in the Swedish forest.
