Calf wasn't as bad as I expected. I was prepared to stop running and getting back to the car at any point. It still hurt though, especially after a short standing still.

Right calf felt "funny" for a kilometer half way the monday's run but it returned to normal. Today it got so bad from the same place that I had to end the game too soon.

Wasn't expecting that much. Back is starting to frustrate me a bit.
First km went OK, then the thick snowing didn't turrn to sleet anymore on the ground but it was pure snow. My DS Trainer's seemed to be lot more slippery than jusbet's and he vanished to the horizon. People started to pass from both sides. Every time I found better grip I passed the same people. After half way I didn't see jusbet anymore. At this point a woman passed me which I thought I knew from somewhere. After pondering it for a 1km I came to the conclusion she must be some sort of track n' field star (turned out that I knew her cause I had captivated her to CMOS a few times ->) and it would be cool to win her. I picked up the pace and soon two Juhas came to the horizon. For a moment I had plan to catch them both but jusbet was too far.
I'm not happy at all. I thought I would be in around 39min shape but I guess the conditions, shoes and back problems gave some extra minutes.

Chase start with reverse order from Hakunila. Good training in really unknown surroundings for me (I have once visited Korso centrum).

Orienteering race 41:00 [5] * 6.4 km (6:24 / km)
shoes: VJ Supra stud
Back was pretty good even without any pills. Otherwise good performance but a 1-2min mistake to #2. I had high hopes that there would be dogs needing a walk even in Vääksy, but I guess I was wrong. I had to make a path for those dogs.
8.10km (5'03, 4'47 without #2)

Orienteering race 1:25:04 [4] *** 11.9 km (7:09 / km)

That's more like it. Still a lot of mistakes but none of 'em were major. A minute tops.
Key thing might've been that I popped the pillbox open and took two voltarens (though it says 1 max). Back pain was gone but I suppose it also somehow distracted the nervesystem since I e.g. kept on hitting my feet to calves while running fast.
Only real mistakes in first half were #3, #5 and #6. Last one was really fast one though. On the easy part (6-11) I could keep pretty good pace and with minor mistakes. Nothing bad from there on either but gradually the back pain made it's way back. I was surprised those pills worked only 1½-2h. I also got a bit tired and small mistakes appeared almost on every control. On the last long leg (24-25) I got the needed rest for mind and back (mostly soft flat surface) and the ending went again well.
Route. Drawn on top of someone else's map and a week after the race.
Pictures from the trip.

Orienteering race 1:00:10 [4] **** 5.5 km (10:56 / km)
shoes: VJ Supra stud
I knew it's gonna be even harder than yesterday so I thought I was prepared for it. And to the beginning I was.
First 6 controls went OKish. Then on #7 I visited the cp one meter away and wandered few minutes around. #8 with good pace and the pace continued a bit too good towards the #9. Again I passed the control couple of meters away and a bigger mistake was done. Then it went weel up until to #14 but then the blackest moment came on 14-16. Ending again good.

I decided to skip the night sprint cause of the back pains.

Orienteering race 43:23 [4] **** 5.0 km (8:41 / km)
shoes: VJ Supra stud
The easy first four controls were easy, and the next 14 hard ones were hard.
GPS curve can speak for itself, so all I'm going to comment is that I read #12 to be on a downhill and not uphill.

So this was it. Yet again another season opening in Portugal. Weather and back problems tried to put down the feeling but still I was pumped up.
I started the same time as Minttu and I was surprised to see myself in front of her near the #1. She lured me to her #1 and season's first mistake was done. After the first cp I saw sulttaani standing and waiting for me. We continued together. #2 and 3 went well and a small mistake to #4. In there I had to guide sulttaani to the cp. Might've been the first time in my life. 5-7 all good. On #8 I went well 99,5% of the way but stopped one bush too early. I would like to say that the cp was a bit lower than in map.. 9-12 well, with some help from sulttaani. On 13 he said that "go to the road" and I went. One spur too early off and yet another mistake in this very easy terrain. Next ones went well up until on #19 I got one bush away from finding the cp straight up, but ended up using almost 3min getting my thighs all bloody. Again the easy end went well.
Not too happy about the performance considering the level of the terrain. Hard to tell how much the back problem restrained my pace.

World's biggest rock was in this terrain. Humongous. I've seen appartment buildings smaller than that. And the funny thing is that you could run under it.

Right after the first one.
After 2/3 it started a hailstorm. It got a bit chilly.
