Orienteering race 31:51 [3]
Passau sprint.
Any prospect that the course leader might not be good at sprints was despatched when I turned at the first control, a long and simple leg, to see him approaching from a minute back. Fairly clean after that until the last two, then goofed at 16... Followed plan perfectly, then inexplicably cut out to the road instead of the control. Then, hadn't planned the crucial route choice to 17, and miss read a narrow alley with a thin line on the end, not thick... So by 17 Arne was back in sight, and he pretty well caught me on the long run to the finish.
If he looked a bit more like an athlete and a bit less like Father Christmas I wouldn't mind so much.
