MTB Orienteering race 57:27 [5] *** 17.62 km (3:16 / km)
spiked:8/11c shoes: MTB bike Kelly's Magic '07
Very bad start. Errors to 1st CP - 1,5', 2nd - 3', 4th - 1', 5,5 mins too much. Near 4th CP saw Kestunas (Siudikas) and decided to wait for him and see how professionals are riding. :) Sit on his wheel for the rest of the race. Wow, what a monster speed! My bike is total crap for such conditions and often I was hardly keeping the pace flying through all these bumps and tree roots.
17.62 km, +37,4% distance, 55:07, 4,2% time not riding.

Mass start, 21/22 CPs at free choice.
More or less ok but route choice was not perfect I guess.

Orienteering race 46:22 [5] *** 7.48 km (6:12 / km)
spiked:17/22c shoes: VJ Integrator '08
Couple garbage mistakes, ~4 mins.
Going to 8th CP was overtaken by Giega, and decided to run couple CPs behind him. The pace was higher than comfortable, but manageable for me. Somehow forced myself to agonize over it right to the finish. Not very interesting but very useful training as running alone I never torture myself so much.

spiked:15/15c slept:6.0 shoes: MTB bike Kelly's Magic '07
Didn't make any error in terms of orienteering, but made many stupid ones: had to stop twice to screw up my mapholder (lazed to fasten it enough before the start), once stopped to collect tools which spilled out of my carrier bag, and also wasted some time pining back my SI card which dropped away. Luckily didn't loose anything but how unprofessional...
Will be more careful next time preparing for the start.

Easy ride to calm my nerves down after another exhausting fu%#@ shitty day at work.
Found out that in yesterday's crash broke ant lost front reflector. One step closer to invisible man.

MTB Orienteering race 1:04:41 [4] ***** 11.2 km (5:47 / km)
spiked:19/26c shoes: MTB bike Kelly's Magic '07
Only at home saw that scale was 1:7500 - no surprise that constanly to many controls was riding too far. ~15 mins of errors. Started late, returned almost in the dark.
50 meters from the finish for the first time in my life was very happy that was riding with a helmet: after bumping into deep hole got overhead kick and my bike landed from the sky right on my head. For head that didn't hurt at all; not so lucky with my wrist, hand and knee.

Green hilly forest, all course up and down, up and down, up... Didn't like it at all, I'm not some mountain goat.
3 big errors, ~10 mins.

Orienteering race 48:21 [3] *** 5.34 km (9:03 / km)
spiked:16/21c shoes: VJ Integrator '08
After errors to 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th CPs (~6-7 mins) thought about restart as all motivation disappeared. But as started to feel very tired so early into the race, understood that nothing right is going to happen today anyway so continued to run, but turtle slow except some short segments when tried to increase the pace but every time was gasping for air very shortly.
No good.
Will rest for next couple days.

MTB Orienteering race 1:05:03 [3] *** 13.76 km (4:44 / km)
spiked:10/15c shoes: MTB bike Kelly's Magic '07
I think this place is not suitable for MTBO at all - almost all paths are unridable, and not too much difference where to carry the bike - using these paths or straight through the forest. Brutal bike destruction.
~13 mins wasted looking for non-existent paths, picking out grass from the sprokets and stupid head.
13.76 km, +70,7% distance, 55:31, 14,7% time not riding.

spiked:15/21c shoes: VJ Integrator '08
Unlike couple days ago in LTU champs, today wasn't good day at all. Felt tired and weak, every time climbing up, that hill looked more and more cruel. Shame but walked into it couple times instead of running. Made many mistakes also, ~5 mins.
