| High-speed running in Pitäjänmäki sporttrack.
"Legendary" 2km "test run" in Pitäjänmäki sport track. While I was a kid in elementary school we ran this test run every year. I was always the fastest one of my class so now after the sorry runs last weekend it was good time to relish those golden memories.. ;-)
I started a little slower but increased my speed all the time. It felt quite easy and fun. Some teenagers driving mopeds on the track disturbed my "concentration" a little

| Lahti suunnistus H21E
1:37:01 17/25 +17:54
Same kind of race as on Saturday but with a little bit more mistakes. I was physically very soft and made about 3 minutes of mistakes. The last mistake was a 1 min mistake on the second last control I made just because I was too tired to concentrate properly.
I think it's time for me to start doing some faster trainings too to get some quickness in my feets for the AM-games.. |

For some reason I never perform well in Lahti-Suunnistus. I didn't make too many mistakes this time (about 1-1,5 mins) but was just totally out of shape. I had really stressful days at work after my trip so it might be just jet lag and that.. After the race I decided to stress less at work.. |
