Orienteering race (Kollerup) 25:31 [4] *** 3.9 km (6:33 / km)
ahr:169 max:182 spiked:15/17c shoes: Inov-8 Oroc 280 #1
JWOC Middle Finals took place today. Some good results from the team once again, with a general improvement from 2009.
I ran the Open Course 2 afterwards again, which had some similar controls to both the Qualie and Finals. Once again, big suprise at the amount of 100% runnable forest, totally contrary to most of our training.
I had another brilliant run, despite being short a compass once again. In the end, I managed to compesate well and only lost about 20s due to the lack of one.
After running paths to #1 (best route), I started running as straight as possible, realising that the forest was so open. I nailed #2 and #3, hesistated on the way to #4 (double checking direction) and then fair to #5. Slightly too far left on #6, but from thereon, everything went perfectly. Aced every single remaining control with the best route choice. Pushed hard in the finish feeling that I could take another win, which worked out to be the case (13s to the 2nd place). I won the splits for #9, 10, 13, 15. Key splits to winning were #13 and #15 where I ran straight and hit them spot on. Biggest error was to #6, where I'm off by 19s.
Results Splits
TE 4.0, Epoc 154, 531 kcal. (suprised that I only got to TE 4.0)
