ORIENTEERING race (Leg 9, 10Mila.) 36:00 [5] **** 5.5 km (6:33 / km)
spiked:13/15c shoes: VJ Twisters
Day leg 9, Västerås SOK Lag 2.
Made a mess of the changeover and missed my man. Still I managed to block this out and have a good run. My leg was not gaffled and managed to catch and completely overtake a group of 6 or so runners. I made a little error to no1 but regained my confidence and got to grips with the speed/,ap in good time.
Lead them around for a couple of controls and then lost them my taking a better route. Missed no 10 by 5 seconds and got caught - then made a mess of 11 by going through the HUGE marsh!!
Caught the runners ahead of me but messed the penultimate by 20meters - tried to catch them on the run in but only caught one!
Great running at a fast pace - by far my best run in Sweden to date.
I LOVE MIDDLE DISTANCE RACES!
Bring on the Jukola/10Mila next year!

ORIENTEERING (Björksta Öst) 40:00 [4] **** 5.0 km (8:00 / km) +75m 7:27 / km
spiked:9/11c shoes: VJ Twisters
Björksta Öst; nr Västerås, Sweden.
A lovely vague orienteering area used for a middle distance race in 2007. Beautiful rocky area with lots of brashings and small contour features. Great practice for the 10Mila!
Ran around with Lizzie again and managed to mess up the last control. Other than that really smooth and exciting orienteering.
