Swiss Cross Country National Championships 2010: Results

World Champion Nino Schurter won his first Swiss national title in hot conditions before an enthusiastic crowd on Sunday in Gränichen while Esther Süss (Wheeler-IXS Pro Team) took the women's championship.

The selection was made early in the men's race when Schurter and his Scott Swisspower teammate Florian Vogel got off the front. By lap four, Schurter was on his own, with a 13-second advantage. Vogel had the misfortunate to have to ride half a lap without a saddle.
