Mary, Sanna, the King of Lunsen and I did some O' practice at Lunsen. Lunsen is probably the most difficult area I've ever run in. Sanna and I took turns leading and following. 5 controls.

Ran around the woods at Lappis with Ken, Dan and Boris. We carried maps and used them a bit. At one point, we lost Ken and spent a good bit of time looking for him (thinking he's smashed his head and was lying unconcious in the woods -- actually, he was on his way home). Fun.

We picked up Mary and Arlanda then ran (puoring rain) at Vårdsätra. It was fun, but my concentration was a bit off. 10 controls.

The last day at Östergötland. Another fun course and another day where both the navigation and running went better. It was a chase start, which is always fun. 13 controls.

Second day -- better than yesterday, both navigation and running in the terrain. 10 controls.

Östgöta 3-dagars first day...not a great run, but not terrible either. 13 controls.

My legs feel a bit dead after wandering around all day in Stockholm yesterday. I won't do a run in Uppsala today. Today is a travel day. Monday through Wednesday I'll run Östgöta 3-days in Finspång. It should be fun (depsite the forecast of rain the whole time).

My goal for the 3-days is to get up to speed with navigation -- run the right speed at the right time and avoid booms.
