Last day of Sørlandsgaloppen in tricky detailed terrain. Mostly good navigation but a few 30s mistakes here and there so a bit further behind than I would have wanted. Results.

Overall a very good week of orienteering. Legs felt good every day, and the navigation felt decent. 6th place overall, 2nd Norwegian. Overall results.

SG day 4. A good start, hit #1 well, and picked a good route to #2. Matthias Merz started a minute behind and caught me after about 15 minutes halfway on the long leg to #2. Figured I had taken a good route since he went the same way. He was running a bit too fast for me, so let him go up to #6. Ran decently for most of the course. A couple of 30s mistakes near the end. A good run, 7:12 behind. Results.

Fantastic mountain terrain.

SG day 3. Had a really great race today, probably the best of the year. 15th place of 75, 3:50 behind the winner. Very nice terrain, with a lot of marsh running. Some very challenging sidehill controls too.

Good start, ran controlled into #1 and #2. Only mistake was on the way to 3, when I headed out of the water control 90 degrees off, quickly realized and corrected. Got overtaken on my way to 4. He was running a bit faster, but kept making mistakes at the controls, which I managed to hit pretty cleanly. Results.

SG day 2. Good aggressive start, but lost a minute on 2. Much more difficult than I thought it would be today. Quite low visibility in the green. A good middle section, but a few more mistakes on the last few controls. Lost maybe 3:30 in total. Still only 5:45 behind, so a decent result at least. Results.
