Avoid technical issues with the map board





Rank in the race: 6th





Another day and another miss opportunity, I knew I should not change to the A3 map board, but I did! After control 1 it fell and then I had to deal with its shit for the rest of the race, so pity! Because my navigation went well. And the only issues I had was due to the technical thing. Also, picked a sub optimal route choice to 9.

4 splits I was second
5 splits I was 3rd


This sprint was a miss opportunity, I have had a lot of good splits in this sprint, however I have made one big navigation mistake in control #11 and I took a sub optimal route choice to #10, it was a bit disappointing that this has happened. However, the speed was good despite me doing extra 2km over the winner which could have been easily avoided. Focus, focus and Focus please!

• No tolerance to become disoriented in a race

1 split I was first
1 split I was 2nd
5 splits I was 3rd


Some good splits in this race, however it did not feel smooth from the beginning, and then I mocked-up control #19 totally and become disorientated. Apparently miss punched 7.
I am taking the good splits and learning from the bad ones… maybe?

 Map reading and map memorising


Rank in the race: 4th with missing a podium by a whisker!

4 splits I was second 2
3 splits I was 3rd


This by far was my best race of the weekend, I was so close to beat MRS but made a suboptimal route choice to 20 which cost me the podium, this will not happen again! Overall very happy with that race, and I think the speed was good even though Peter Swanson was smashing us all, so more fitness please for next year.

The speed was good but not enough, also I may need to be more aggressive in the singles and in general during the race.

Mocked up the two last controls but there was no point anyway, missed podium due to mechanical shit.
