Orienteering race 1:26:00 [4] ***** 8.3 km (10:22 / km)
spiked:9/13c shoes: Olway yellow

Ok race. Again i tried to just go steady. for the first 6 controls i did this very well. then on the long trail run to 7 i was pretty confident since i saw i just had a few close controls and then a long run back to the finish that looked pretty simple. after the long leg to 7 though, i think i stopped focusing a bit and bobbled the control and saw olof who started 10 minutes behind. This got me a bit flustered and i made about 15 minutes of mistakes on the next 4 controls. I ran the last few controls with Andy from the US, which was fun becuase we were flying through them, trying to leave each other behind...In the end , the being tired and losing focus was the main reason for those mistakes as it often is for me in these long races.
