Orienteering race 53:10 [5] 4.1 km (12:58 / km) +180m 10:38 / km
Last Nat.A race near Wil; I was really psyched up and wanted to run well and practice my competitive edge. I succeeded quite well and tried to push and to be concentrated all the time. Later, studying the course, I realised that I still was not entirely clean. 2 1-minute mistakes and one 2-minute mistake plus 20 secs here and there. But physically, I seem to gain speed and I am more and more able to stay with the first few.
The fact that I was 5 min late at the start, did not interfere with my attitude. What was more unnerving was the fact that I did not get a clue sheet at the start as I was directed on an outside lane to start. So, I tried to calm myself and to take it as a good training to be absolutely sure of the control I was "punching". I was very pleased with the outcome and encouraging result. (I am not running for any ranking points, I have missed too many meets this year.)
