Yökuppi's 12th season is about to start tonight. Because the spring is ca. a month late at the moment, at least the first event will be a sprint inside an army base. Thus not sure will there be a tracking (Jagge can comment on that).
Schedule (mostly GMT+3, except few events in Oct)
Tune in for tracking here.

yep, haven't got map/courses yet, but there is stil time. And I'll use my imagination if haven't got anything by 8pm.

Hirppa shows up only every now and then. cell network isn't working properly.
Apr 17, 2013 7:05 PM
#
Or he is running really fast and cell towers just can't understand his signal for redshift.
Apr 17, 2013 7:07 PM
#
The Hirppsenberg Uncertainty principle. We can't know both his position and velocity at the same time.
Apr 24, 2013 5:03 PM
#
You got it right eddie. I didn't know my position if I had any velocity at the same time.
Today it's back to the nature. Forest that is. Mass start and there should be 4-5 people to track.

I like how Attackpoint now has the # minutes ago feature. 19 minutes ago, Eddie posted "20 minutes to the start", and I don't have to wonder if he wrote that hours ago.
Apr 24, 2013 7:02 PM
#
dogleg to 7 on Aleksi's forking. Big advantage with the line of lights heading back out?
Apr 24, 2013 7:05 PM
#
Look at the split on 7-8. This is awesome. 4 mins/k on the road vs 6:20 in the marsh.
Apr 24, 2013 7:12 PM
#
Climbing over the spur on the road made it slower. If the road was flat the whole way the two options would have been even.
Apr 24, 2013 7:31 PM
#
Timo a couple of hundred meters back of Aleksi now. Can he make it up before the end? Whoa, Aleksi's track a little warped at the end there. Must've been a solar flare or something.
Apr 24, 2013 7:35 PM
#
Aleksi (and his group?) took wrong control, second last. There is C and D course's control there, the cliff. DQ.
Apr 24, 2013 7:38 PM
#
Funny, that was his 4th visit to that control, one would think he would have noticed the place did not look the same.
Apr 24, 2013 7:42 PM
#
His tracking was perfect for the entire race, so seemed odd to be that far off just at the end. Now we know. Timo's track was off at 5, 12 and 14 - to the SE in all cases. Maybe his sats were all NW and his antenna is low on his back?
Apr 24, 2013 7:48 PM
#
Some poorer gpses are just behind, sometimes more, sometimes less, and kind of short cuts every time you make turn. That effect would give about the style of track Assu has.
Apr 24, 2013 7:54 PM
#
Yes. Every time we see a glimpse of Hirppa he is moving at somewhat sensible direction. It has not always been like that, you know :)
Apr 24, 2013 7:55 PM
#
Aleksi slowed down quite a bit coming into that control. I thought the GPS track was just bunching up or he had lost contact.
Apr 24, 2013 8:06 PM
#
Very entertaining race today. Thanks! I guess I should do some work now.
Apr 24, 2013 9:18 PM
#
You woulda found me entertaining today... had I not been in some other woods an hour away. I hear there might be more snow up where Yökuppi was. In Lohja there was some, but not enough to be bothersome.
Apr 25, 2013 12:31 AM
#
I've followed before. I tried today, but my work machine doesn't like Java anymore.
Apr 25, 2013 2:16 AM
#
I had java problems last week too. An update seems to have fixed it.
I was interviewed for a Finnish O-mag article last year regarding my un-natural interest in Yökuppi. Someday I hope to make an in-person appearance at an event. Will have to come up with a Superfan outfit of some kind. Tin foil hat, cape, the works. Or maybe a fur coat:

Ndobbs - the forest was surprisingly snowfree. I took maybe 20 steps in snow on the way.
And eddie - the time you come to run Yökuppi, that race will be promoted: Yökuppi feat. eddie and the fur coat.
Apparently Aleksi (All-in) did punch the right control and won the whole race. So it was just a shift.
I don't know what's wrong with my tracking devices at the moment (same problem a week ago) but hopefully it'll be fixed for next week when it's the last one of the spring season.

Bought myself a new prepaid card for the tracking phone. Hopefully that would solve the problem.
In about 4 h, last start before September. Mass start again.

Is eddie the only online follower of Yökuppi in the entire world?
I checked web server logs and no, he is not the only one. Googlebot does it too regularly.

Aleksi and Kristian seem to be tied together with a string. Maybe they are running it as a 3-legged race.

My Javani not load, so I'm dependent on your conversation. Who is ahead in the race?
May 1, 2013 7:27 PM
#
Aleksi&Kristian. They seem to be sharing a single GPS unit :) They are out in front of Kimmo and Seppo by about 300m.
May 1, 2013 7:34 PM
#
(That may not be Kristian, could also be someone with Kristian's gps, like Mikko R)
May 1, 2013 7:41 PM
#
Aleksi and "Kristian" split widely now. I thought "K" would take that indistinct path the whole way. Maybe he missed the junction? Now looks like they are both headed for #11 instead of #9
May 1, 2013 7:42 PM
#
The strong nuclear force has overwhelmed the electroweak and they are back together again. I think a photon and a neutrino were emitted.
May 1, 2013 7:49 PM
#
Aleksi with the win. Kimmo is back on-screen, having another good race this week!
May 1, 2013 7:51 PM
#
Now he's using his cloaking device to sneak past the competition on the road run.
May 1, 2013 7:58 PM
#
Hirppa, try setting your device to 2G only if you havent tried it yet. Maybe it is switching between 3G/2G and failing to work properly unless you stay at one place where 2G or 3g works and it does not need to switch. 2G would do just fine, you are not that fast ;)
May 1, 2013 9:04 PM
#
Jagge I can tell that it was Kristian. Aleksi had troubles with his led light and he ran most of the course without light. Topi and Mikko R were 6 min faster than guys with tracking.
May 1, 2013 9:06 PM
#
Hirppa, try setting your device to 2G ... 2G would do just fine, you are not that fast ;)
Have to try it. Indeed I'm not that fast but apparently I'm just in such a shape that my navigating keeps up :) Nearly perfect performance.
I'll try to track tomorrow's 10mila "team spirit run" and we'll see how it goes.
There was a big debate at the finish about the leg 10-11. 5-6 people ran on the forest side, all the others on field (in Finland dotted field is forbidden). Sort of foolish from the course setter to do such a thing.

#
Whoa! So cool. I guess he was with someone else when you guys split to #9? How did you just happen to come back together in the middle of the forest?
May 1, 2013 9:13 PM
#
I was wondering about the cultivated area. As far as I know its allowed in the US when there is nothing growing/planted at the time of the race, but forbidden if planted. This symbol is very rarely seen on US maps. I can only think of a few.
May 1, 2013 9:30 PM
#
Yeah, as far as I know, Finland is an exception in the dotted cultivated area. Many European countries have that symbol but it means that it is planted some time of the year and might not be forbidden. In Finland it's always forbidden unless proven otherwise.
2008 Halikkoviesti, Jan Prochazka (Kalevan Rasti) learned it the hard way, when he drew his route at the finish over a dotted cultivated area and with this information, organisers were forced to dsq Kalevan Rasti from the top spot.

There was some on the US Champs maps in Wisconsin, if I remember correctly. I think several of the Kansas City area maps have some, too.
For that ISSOM corn maze map that I made last fall, I could have used a lot of it. I actually think I had three legal choices for mapping the corn: 415 cultivated land (seasonally out-of-bounds), 421 impassable vegetation (forbidden, darkest green), and 528 area with forbidden access (olive green).
I ended up choosing olive green because it offered a good contrast with the network of trails, and it's the most common symbol of the three.

It look's like Hirppa has got the tracking working. Right now being tracked at yökuppi tracking site. The problem was bt gps and phone being at opposite sides of the body, poor connection there. Strong guy, too much muscles in between.
Jul 4, 2013 5:57 AM
#
Aleksi (All-in) has kept on doing great runs also in daylight, yesterday 4th in JWOC middle. Not bad.
Sep 4, 2013 5:00 AM
#
And it's on again tonight!! Start (individual) around 21:00 (13h from now).
The start will most likely be on harness racing track so at least I'm going for a volt start.

Must have missed it, a bit too high and overshoot. No much night training lately I guess.
Sep 4, 2013 6:50 PM
#
Hapardi is now 65 secs behind Timo, if he finds 8 straight he will have clear lead.
Sep 11, 2013 6:35 AM
#
Tonight mass start at around 20:30 (11h from now). One of the guys to be tracked is none other than ndobbs himself.
Sep 11, 2013 2:18 PM

Just heard a rumor that even a bit bigger name than Neil would be starting: Timo Sild.

Yeah, Tatu was really tearing it up at the beginning there. He had 1:30 on everyone at 8, but...
Sep 11, 2013 6:18 PM
#
Yeah perhaps. That's a wide swing right on 9. Kimmo started out the same way but was not with that same group. Not quite sure what the parallel distraction would be on that line.
Sep 11, 2013 6:22 PM
#
And now Jagge is opening the door at 16. Gotta hit those ditches or its a no-mands land of dark, featureless marsh.
Sep 11, 2013 7:18 PM
#
I always have trouble seeing those marsh ditches even in the daytime. I was trying to think if there are any US maps with manmade marsh drainage ditches. Can't think of any.
Sep 11, 2013 8:26 PM
#
It all started to go wrong when I steadily narrowed the gap to Neil on the way to #4 but decided to follow Turskis instead (to the marsh). Then it took to #16 to get on that 7 year ols map / 1:5000. At least I was entertaining again :)
Sep 11, 2013 8:39 PM
#
Now when I see our track to #15 it makes sense. The trail we were running is not on the map and it's not the mapped one as I thought. Makes sense, thats why I was suddenly 100 meters right and did hit path instead of control. Tapsa was leading, and ndobbs following him and I was following them both, I should have known it will not end up well.
Sep 11, 2013 8:46 PM
#
I decided to not follow Tapsa, which I should have known would not end up well.
Sep 11, 2013 9:45 PM
#
Who is this mysterious Tapsa of which you speak? Perhaps he should be tracked next week.
Sep 12, 2013 12:09 AM
#
Beech Hill, Gardner, MA
But there's no reason for anyone to go where the ditches are.

Subtle. :-) (In the winter, you can take the tunnel once the water freezes. But that doesn't happen in July.)
Sep 12, 2013 3:47 AM
#
I believe they are talking about this guy. A club mate of Neil's. And this was one of the first times he's been to yökuppi so wouldn't count on him coming back next week.
Sep 18, 2013 5:08 PM
#
10mn to start (individual). Light drizzle makes it perfect for night-o (but maybe not for satellite connection).
Sep 18, 2013 5:37 PM
#
Hopefully no-one breaks bones coming down from #10. I barely dared to climb down that slope last sunday - dry consitions and in daylight and after gathering courage for a minute. Now it's dark and it's raining.
Sep 18, 2013 5:41 PM
#
I meant to ask about that cliff SE of #10. It appears to be running along a reentrant bottom. Is it some kind of knife edge, or a segment of paved road? :)
Sep 18, 2013 5:54 PM
#
These runners were there last sunday, so they may know the place. And half of the controls, those are mostly same to.
Sep 18, 2013 6:57 PM
#
I didn't jump.. And lost couple of good backs there. I just saw my becoming swiss training camp crumbling when I saw where Tatu and Kristian went down. And as Jagge said, I knew the place from Jagge's log but darkness and wetness made it still quite interesting.
Sep 25, 2013 12:22 PM
#
Less than 5 h to the start. It's district champs with special guest stars such as M. Kauppi. Way over hundred lightheads. Some of the usual trackees (can you say like that..?) are offline since they are organising this event, but replacements should be almost on the same level ;)
Like:
Minna K - One 2nd place in winter version of Yökuppi (Korttelikuppi)
Marttiina J - Finnish rankin 14th
Aleksi A - JWOC middle 4th 2013
Jarno P - coach in the JWOC team
Toni S - About same level as Aleksi
and some other

Whoa, guest stars! Will the other M21s be wearing a wire tonight? The usual suspects like Tatu, Tomi and Lauri? Looks like Saara is running again this week after the slip'n'slide down from #10 last week. I'd love to see more Trekkies. What's the largest number of tracking victims we've had for a Yökuppi race?
And poor Jagge...Mr. "is that a cell phone on your ass" himself...relegated to "other" :)

It's actually Saara or Tatu cause we don't have devices to both. Which one you prefer? Saara is the only one who can chalenge Minna and Marttiina but Tatu is the cup leader on A-course. Women will run B-course.

Sorry eddie I couldn't give you back up. I was in the forest with camera.
And also sorry for the fact that two tracking devices didn't make it to the forest. Jarno and Marttiina arrived 15min before their start.
Car's windows and roof were totally frozen when leaving home. Two months too early...

2 hours to go. I forgot to ask map and they forgot to send it, so tracking map will be a bit ghetto. I should get map as a smartphone photo (MMS message I guess) and I'll improvise from there on.

The only time for a long time that I'm able to watch tracking (from Switzerland) and the map is ghetto... :/ Hope you get it working!

How 'bout that Kristian, wide left to the track on 2? Fastest by over a minute on the other two.
Oct 2, 2013 7:09 PM
#
Nice to see it worked well enough, I was dark foot o-ing (is that right term?) elsewhere and could not watch. Map was combination of 2 months old middle race map scan by Hapardi and course photo I got as MMS message, that calibrated using Terkelsen's gps track downloaded from AP.
Oct 9, 2013 2:48 PM
#
In a bit over hour it's on again (individual). All the tracking euipment are in my posession and I'm still at home. So hopefully I'll manage to find some victims in time.
Fast terrain with long legs.

No, Juha Hi can't be right, for sure he is not runing since he is the course setter.

#
Juha Hi is organizing this event. Not running I suppose. Maybe he paid someone to run on his name :).
Oct 9, 2013 4:54 PM
#
Now I don't understand. Assu makes comeback !? He must have helped someone injured or with flat battery out of the forest. Or something.
Oct 9, 2013 5:07 PM
#
Yikes. Some pretty wild loops going on around #1.Which one is Assu? I saw Jukka go out before the start and then seemed to return, only to go out again later. Poor guy. Nightmare at #1.
Oct 9, 2013 5:10 PM

There must be people everywhere around #1. A headlamp in every depression.

Oct 16, 2013 5:42 PM
#
Guess would it have been a great tracking.. Minna left about 10min after me and we left maybe 15min after my finish towards home. At that point we heard that she had asked atleast from two people where she was..
Oct 23, 2013 3:08 PM
#
In about 1h it's mass start time. And this time I didn't have so hectic start from home so I even have equipment with.
Oct 23, 2013 5:24 PM
#
ooh, another fun looking area. I missed the live race this morning (cat to the vet). I should know not to make appointments on Wednesdays by now. Still nice to have the tracks afterwards. Looks like Kimmo had a good race - only one small mistake?
Oct 23, 2013 7:56 PM
#
Well not exactly. You can't see my hesitant navigating from the gps-line. And 4-5 mins of pure mistakes. Though in that kind of a terrain it might be average to me :)

Tonight the 2013 Grande Finale as a short rogaining at 18:00 (3 ½ h from now). An immense ammount of starters (117). A-course (most likely all the trackies) is 90 min and a hefty 5p penalty for every 1min you're late from the finish. That's something close to a average points you get from one control (if the tracking map has codes: 37 -> 3p, 127 -> 12p). So I guess that's at least something that keeps you entertained with the help of the split feature.

Is this live right now - you walking to the start? Remember to turn it off if you stop at the toilet on the way :)

The real number seems to be close to 130. Jagge has been reached from Helsinki ring road so let's see will there be map in time this time.

SW corner of the map may not be that well aligned with the gps data, but I think it will do. Not a lidar based map you know.

My officemate just indicated that I need a shower. I didn't want to miss the start after running in...

Good thing Terkelsen turned off the camera, we could hear him swearing right now.

Timo is almost at top. The scenery near 205 was like this, two weeks ago https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-...
Now it is pitch-black.

Are those the Lahti ski jumps in the NW corner? If so, I've been there - waaay back in 2000. I wasn't racing that day though. Just eating blaubeer in the forest.

Oh, yes, there they are! Yes, I was picking berries near 212 :) Then we went out for pizza at Rax Pizza Buffet in town. I think I ate my way through the WC that year.

Ha, I thought maybe that's what he was up to after I caught D-I-E at the end. do you have more than 2 minute tail somehow? (nevermind, now I remember)

I'm glad someone is going to 82. We're almost at 60 mins now. Are all the trackies on the 90min course?

#
Yeah, those are some big points left behind. Not much time left for the high points on the E end.
Oct 30, 2013 5:30 PM
#
Yeah, Timo, Harri and Teemu will all sweep the NW. Someone will have to venture E to get an advantage. 36 is close enough, but someone will have to get 39. 39!!!!

#
Yes. Unofficial: Timo 225, Kimmo and Teemu 217, Harri 212, Tatu 179.

Dude! I *must* have a Yökuppi T-shirt! Does it say "Only by the night" on the back? Where can I buy one? Or maybe they're only for the series point winners? Maybe I can trade one of Spike's shirts for one. Yeah, the land-use attitudes are a bit different over here :)

There's actually several types of Yökuppi t-shirts:

(yökuppi o-shirt, season shirts 2007-2012, and the one you linked)
Normally that white shirt has only the person's name at the back but anything can be arranged. So if you want one, I'll (we'll) make it happen :)
