Event: Eliteserien FInal
 

Since I haven't been running much comps this year my ranking sucks.... So at 25-mannakorten (middle distance event after 25-manna) my ranking wasn't good enough for the elite class. Instead, I was running regular H21.

The day started great. I got early to the comp, and since it was raining I decided to stay in the car for a bit, listening to music and waiting for the rain to pass. Obviously I fell asleep and woke up about an hour later. It was still lots of time before my starttime (1h) when I went over to the competition center. When I started to change to go to the start I realised that I forgot my shoes in th car. After getting them I didn't have much time at all.

I got to the start the same minute as my starttime, quite stressed.

The race wasn't great, I wasn't concentrating enough on the orienteering I was just running. After a couple of smaller mistakes I made a big one to nr 9. I'm guessing that I lost about 2 min on that one.

Anyway, about 4-5 min of mistakes totally.

Intervals with ski-poles in one of the marshes in Uppsala. 2x15min. Good training with focus on the upper body. Training for the ski season has started!

Event: 25Manna
 

25-manna 5th leg. Pretty good race without bigger mistakes. I did take a couple of bad routechoises and I felt slow the whole time. My team (OK Linné 2) ended up in 48th place (I think).

Not sure about the time.

Running in the forest.

Middle-O in Vårdsätra. Tried to focus on the stuff I've been having problems with when orienteering. Worked out pretty well.
