Saturday Oct 6 |
| |
| Event: 25-manna
|
| Orienteering race 29:30 [5] | |
| |
| Last leg for VSOK. Felt the pressure! Started in a big group of speedy girls and thought I wasn't going to be able to keep up for a bit but then they missed and I worked it out so that made me feel better. Then lost over a minute to the first spectator control but some of them missed after that so managed to end up in a ridiculous sprint finish with Kaisa Nilsson and they had to give us a deadheat it was so tight! Our times are wrong on the results as they wouldn't let us punch the finish until they'd decided who'd won the sprint.
12th= for Vasteras if all the disqualifications stand... Our best ever is 11th so almost there! |

| C • good spurt 4 |

| Climbing 1:30:00 [2] | |

| did the green with pink spots circuit although didn't quite manage to complete all of them (eg neither on the skip). Had Shane teaching me how to do it and Mat showing me how to do it which was good though it made me feel pretty useless! Unfortunately I have all the gear after working at planetFear so look like I should no what I'm doing!! |
