Great article. Unlike so much press about orienteering, it doesn't make fun of it, but makes it seem fun and a serious sport, and interesting. It's got everything - the love interest, the cute arguing about how to get to Ikea, and even a bit about death (pg), but also clearly portrays how hard you work to be at the top, the athleticism.

Love seeing friends in the video.

Fantastic bit or writing about orienteering and about a man who embodies the sport so well.
Hey you teachers and youth leaders did you catch the reference to his start on a schoolyard map?
