Event: Jukola 2017
 

Morning run on the trails by the lake near Jonesuu, Finland

A training near the Jukola site. Jan Erik, Sarah, Katie and I ran about a kilometer to the start and took the first four controls slow to get into the map and terrain. I totally messed up the first control and was unsure of what I was even doing to the second control, but i ran into Jan Erik and we discussed what our first impressions were of how to approach this terrain and navigated cleanly the rest of the leg. #3 I was pushed around by the vegetation and had to push to the right to get to the control. Jan Erik and I decided on a route for the fourth control and I nailed it! Some fine compass and map reading to # 5 and then to #8 and waited for the rest of the group. Then it was plain orienteering to the finish.

Morning run with a couple hill sprints at the end

Training near Antons house in Finland. Details to come. See Thomas's log for map
