Event: 25manna
10 AM
Running (off-road) warm up/down 23:01 3.2 km (7:12 / km) +38m 6:48 / km
ahr:126 max:161 shoes: VJ Bold
Warm up. Pretty excited for the race to come. Found a nice empty field to do some laps before heading into the changeover with Johannes. It was possibly the best relay changover area ever from the outgoing runner's perspective (maybe Jukola 2009 was similarly good) with an almost 2 minute run-in around the area to prepare. Did some drills and strides too and the body felt quite active and ready to go when start time came.
Orienteering race 49:58 *** 7.78 km (6:25 / km) +126m 5:56 / km
ahr:167 max:177 spiked:13/17c shoes: VJ Bold
25manna - OK Linne 3 - Leg 5B - 97th
Livelox
Quite the mixed bag, but takeaways mostly bad. I really got into my own head about being secure and took a lot of safe routes that I didn't necessarily need. Mostly wasn't too bad but then on the easy leg I made a total mess of it confusing an elephant path for a real track and dropping about 4:30. Really bad! 347/365 on the split. Recovered ok and the legs were not too bad for the last part. Couldn't make any ground on Johannes on the run in though. Fitness seemed a relative positive, though even 4 min faster I would be down on last years placing.
Entertaining anecdotes include:
Two guys who abruptly stopped to consult a map together blocking the entire path about 2m in front of me. They didn't block it for long
Some guy caught one of his team mates and was like "haha I caught you", then blasted past him and the control where there was no other gaffel option (no. 8)
There were some walkers on the path before 10 looking around confounded as to what to do next.
