27 degrees haha.................... fun.
Norwegian JWOC middle test race.
Three big mistakes killed this for me, still, lots of positives. The norwegians made it as similar to Finland as possible (length, terrain, controls etc.) Confident I can run well in this when it goes right. Next few weeks will be important for making sure I can get it right on the day.
Need to trust myself more. Feel generally quite confident in Scandic terrain :) (though 6mins behind (the maybe JWOC winner tbf) ain't good enough!!).

2 - climbed unnecessarily.
5 - wrong reentrant, fixed quickly
6 - lost where I was on the leg and hill, panicked, looked around way to early and lost a lot of time relocating and calming down
8 - didn't trust my compass and believe I was where I was, went to see the path just to check
9 - wrong knoll, quickly relocated
11 - thought I was meant to be running to no.7, fixed quickly after realising i recognised the code...
15 - awful route, never hit the little path I wanted to till to late
16 - heat kicked in and I was completely wrong, took a while to realise...
