Swiss O Week Day 2. The shortest day (for me) and the steepest day. Most of the course was in pleasant, open alpine forest with little vegetation. One leg included a leg-busting 150m climb up a very steep bank, followed by a few legs in open alpine pasture. I really enjoyed this race though and made no significant mistakes apart from a silly one at the end where I overshot badly and wasted 2 minutes. My best result of the week.
Result: 738 points. 58th out of 125 finishers. Best split: 13th on a very short leg in a flat but technical area in the trees - ran hard.
