Kamnik - Ljubljana

1a. Orienteering (races) race (Strangel) 1:10:04 [3] ***** 3.3 km (21:14 / km) +320m 14:18 / km
SOL race in Vojsko.
I was not feeling 100% in the morning, and the car-ride up the winding road to Vojsko didn't make it much better. I had a late start so could recover a bit, but my physical state was so-so. I walked more then 90% because of it I think, not a bad idea anyway.
In spite of that the race went not really bad, two bigger problems and only a few small ones is not what I call a bad score for myself in this terrain.
I totally missed 9. I couldn't find it, went back to the small path just after 8, and would have missed it again I think, if I wouldn't have been lucky enough to see someone who was obviously prepairing for the next leg and yes there it was. I was somehow following the wrong line of cliffs and even though I realised this the second time, I didn't do anything different :-( Would be a nice one to see back in the terrain step-by-step.
I also missed 13, but finding 14 (very close after it) saved me from a disaster. That leg 14 was a bit weird by the way: ultra-short, straight through a very long thick bush. It had such a form that I wouldn't really call that a route-choice, but ehh. even though I've run that leg twice, I've never seen the bush, so IMHO it was mapped incorrectly or someone cut the forest in the past 8 years. But in both cases no bonuspoints for the course-setting here.
Otherwise I liked the course and the terrain, I think this is how a MD should be, a bit less steep would have helped though ;-)

warmup/cooldown/stretching warm up/down 30:00 [1] 2.0 km (15:00 / km) +100m 12:00 / km
Warmingup + coolingdown, should have put it before the race, coz I didn't really do a coolingdown, just jogging and walking back. But I forgot to put it there, and I'm too lazy to do it again.
3 PM
