NWC Day 2


Didn't sleep enough, but was excited to orienteer, so after yawning lots in the start boxes, I woke up.

Ran the whole race trying to be confident and push a bit harder. Runnable woods and not *too* much climb meant I didn't suffer too much. It worked well. Apart from one somewhat misplaced control where I lost 4 minutes, I only lost 26 seconds to superman out there (granted, superman is Andrew ;p ), mostly spiking everything, though sometimes hesitant when 5m from the control. On leg #14 I was also a bit extra-hesitant.

Happy with my performance. And the woods were glorious.

From today's photo shoot.




The mountain in the background is kind of big, and the road to the left leads back to France.


Needless to say, it has a fort on top.


Andrew won today, again.

Northwest Cup Day 1
San Sicario

Ran reasonably well, one biggish mistake on #5, but realised afterwards that on the legs I ran confidently and fast I had good splits, strangely enough... so I ought to do more of that. Beautiful, runnable woods.

Andrew won the coffee and oil today.
