Orienteering race (THE JUKOLA) 2:02:54 [5] ***** 9.9 km (12:25 / km)
slept:5.0
Back in Jukola. It was so awesome to watch the Venla relay on Saturday afternoon and then the start of the Jukola on Saturday evening at 11pm. It is something really amazing when 1,400 runners start at the same time to the forest wearing the headlamps.
I wasn't sleeping very well after the relay start, maybe some 5 hours or less. I was running 10K 6th leg this year and started after 8am. It didn't start very well, when I missed the first control for maybe two minutes. Then it turned better, some mistakes, nothing major. My running is not best possible right now due to injuries. Still it was really cool to run and be within. I started at #627 and dropped my team with 37 places and finished at #664. Finally, we finished at #654 of 1452 started and 1151 acceptable finished teams.

Biking (MTB + stretching) 45:00 [2]
Getting ready for the weekend. I'm SO excited to get back to Jukola first time after 2004. I wanted so much to be there when I was listening thru the web in the US and last year in Austria. This will be now my 11th Jukola.
