POM day 2 - middle distance. Took it easy.

POM day 1 - long distance. Some minor mistakes, but a very stable technical race. Technically not so difficult, only compass runinnging, and consentration necessary. Got a bit tired towards the end (just water to get on the refreshment stations, and I had no gel with me), but satisfied with being only 5 min behind the winner on a day where the legs felt heavy from a long training week. 11th position.

POM night sprint in Praia da Mira. Just jogging.

Sprint relay at POM. Ran 1st leg for Sävedalens 1st team. I started with taking enough time to read the map, and after choosing my route choice I found my self just behind the three Halden SK girls Ida, Kine and Eva. After punshing the 1st control there was a route choice again, and the group splitted up. I ran a middle route choice, and in the end all of the different routes where quite similar. The forking to the third splitted the group again, and I found my self infront at my forking. I stayed focused and could run fast, but just before the arena passage I came together with Ida. and with her in front we came together in the lead to the spectator control. We continued challenging eachother the rest of the course, and build up a good gap down to the 3rd team. In the end Ida was a bit stronger than me, and she won the leg. I didn't see any blinking red light at the last control (SI touch free) so I ran some meters back and punshed it a 2nd time.

Sebastion ran good on the 2nd leg, and we were still in the fight. Jonas ran well for a long time but made a mistake in the end, but we were still in the top 8. Maria ran well and we came 7th in the end.

Multi-tech course.
