Athlete profile: Thierry Gueorgiou
Last updated July 2012
The King of Middle distance - winning more middle distance races in international championships than all other runners together. His force is surely his orienteering technique - training more with a map than any other top orienteer. Has raised the standard of training, and developed French orienteering as well. Injury problems in the sprint of 2012 - needed to leave EOC without running any finals - and not clear if he would be ready in time for WOC in Switzerland.
