10 AM

Orienteering 1:25:00 [3] 15.0 km (5:40 / km)
shoes: Inov 8 oroc (july 10)

Mass start line O with Linus, Eric, Carol, Colm, Ruari, and Connor.

SO much fun, favourite training of the trip.

Beautiful open forest 5min from Linus' cabin. Quite hilly but body felt pretty good.

Linus set the pace right from the start. Started at the back and gradually made my way to the front. Linus refused to give up the lead though so I willingly clung to his back, especially throught the pine bits. After about half way it was just him and I. Faked an attack with 600m left but it failed, then Linus tried a second attack with about 400m to go and I couldnt respond. Saw a glimmer of hope as I made up some ground on a hill with about 100m left but it was too late.
5 PM

Running warm up/down 40:00 [1]
shoes: Adizero Mana (Sept 09)

6 PM

Orienteering 17:25 [4]
shoes: Adizero Mana (Sept 09)

Sprint training with IFK Mora in downtown Mora, together with past JWOC and WOC medalists.

Body very tired from the morning but went my hardest. Very good course and map. Made some small mistakes and two really bad routes where I lost significant time. Under 16min should have been possible with optimal routes and fresh legs.
