Orienteering race (O-Ringen Etapp 5) 1:37:01 [3] 7.2 km (13:28 / km)
Hiking day. My achilles was a bit sore + I had a sore throat so I decided to take it easy. So I didn't give a damn about the chasing start. Missed #1 a bit again when I didn't play it safe in the end. I was walking to #3 but still managed to miss it quite a bit even though I knew exactly where I was 100m before the control. I couldn't understand the green detailed area at all. From that control on my brain was more or less in my pocket again. I thought to myself on the way to #4: "Don't do anything stupid now!" But I found myself lost in the middle of the marshes anyway... It got very amusing when some junior guys showed up in the area. They were running around in circles and one of them kept shouting: "Anders! Anders!". I thought that he was shouting it because he had found the control but I guess he was just missing his friend. I was eating lots of blueberries in the forest and I was happy to notice that I would get some water to go with them in #7. But my disappointment was huge when there was no water there after all because the man was just carrying the water buckets to the control when I passed it. Luckily I got some water after #8. Had some problems to find #9 but was happy to, maybe for the 10th time during the week, to help someone at the control.
