spiked:16/20c shoes: 2007 VJ Falcons
Elisterien Blekinge, Middle Distance.
I was dead tired after yesterday, and the 50m climb straight up to the first control didn't exactly help, but spiking it did. Still, I didn't have great focus the first half of the course. I let myself drift off the line in the green on #3, run right by the right boulder and not turn my head to see the flag at 6, and leave the control at a bad angle and pay the price at 9. At that point I was caught by the guy who started four minutes back, and suddenly, focus was back on and the legs felt good again. After hitting number 10 and watching him run past it, the control flow was back, and I orienteered very cleanly the rest of the way in, staying ahead of this guy all the way through. In the end, watched Mats blow by with Andrey Khramov on his tail, both flying full-speed: a cool sight!
This was, all in all, a disappointing week-end, but it was nice to finish off well, with the same feeling during the second half of yesterday's course that I had during the JK middle race.
Rob had a great run and won my course, and it was fun to see so many fine runs from the Linne guys in Elite 1: 4 men in the top 18!
