Lappee Jukola 2016 - 6th Leg 12.4km 92:11 (65 winning time +42%) +about 5mins.
Having not exactly done a lot of orienteering recently I wasn't feeling too confident, so my plan was to not push too hard and make sure I stayed in control as much as possible. This plan I think was sensible so wasted about 5mins due to errors, not exactly great but could have been a lot worse if I pushed harder.
Having had a distinctly mediocre nights' sleep due to wind, rain and people coming back and forth, I wasn't exactly fresh. But once I got out there, I felt surprisingly alright! I ran at a comfortable pace and just ticked the controls off one by one not getting worked up if I was overtaken. Managed to gain 6 places for the team with this effort. Happy with the race and looking forward to the coming months
