Orienteering race 1:17:00 [5] ***** 11.0 km (7:00 / km) +250m 6:17 / km
shoes: Jalas Black

Jukola Relay. Leg 2. Running for Vasteras SOK 2nd Team.

RobB went out first had a bad time and set me off in about 450th. Ran really hard and tried to play it safe wherever possible. Slowed down well in the technical bits. Lost about 3 mins on one control near the end where I switched off. Lost maybe another 2-3mins total, as there was people going every which way and I seemed to have to slow down and do my own thing at every control.

I made up 237 places (which is a record -for me anyway) and discounting the 3min mistake I was about 5mins down. Pretty pleasing in the (near) dark and against a load of fins.
