orienteering 49:45 [5]

WUOC Relay

mixed team, 4th leg, after Daniel (ger), simon (aus) and niall...
got overtaken by the danish guy after a bad error on the way to the 3rd control... on my own until almost the tenth when i nearly caught the dane again... but another mistake... also a mistake going to the 7th, similar to the first error - using contours to choose the direction and going twenty degrees off - it wasn´t very steep...

not a bad run though, two minutes faster than niall, three slower than simon...

orienteering 10:00 [2]

warmup

orienteering 51:30 [5]

WUOC Middle

still no energy in the legs... first 7 controls were not good. After that was pretty clean. ran against a swede for a couple of controls... not fit enough so he got away. caught up again a couple of times which i was happy with... but...

i think (hope) a large part of my problems this week were due to the hard two weeks before coming here with the Nationales in Chamrousse and very little sleep. Still, it shouldn't take that long to recover. Perhaps I just didn't warm up well wnough.

I have a lot of work to do. Aside from technique and fitness, I should perhaps also do some running racing to learn to push myself and follow fit scandinavians who can read a map. It's not why I orienteer, but in big competions... but won't start doing that until next year :)
Marian Davidik: 37:xx

Got Kiwied and Japped. The shame...

running 10:00 [3]

warmup

orienteering 18:00 [5]

WUOC Sprint.

Going great until the 15th control. Atacked the 16th from the wrong side... and ran into a bramble patch too... and didn't correct fast... lost a minute and got caught by the swede who starteda minute after.

then didn't go to the 19th control - punched a girls' one instead... strangely the map didn;t make sense starting from there going towards the 20th

winner ran just sub 15, without the mistakes 16:30 was easyish.

orienteering 10:00 [2]

warm up

orienteering 1:55:00 [5] 14.0 km (8:13 / km) +470m 7:02 / km

WUOC Classic
1:15000

strangely, i must have been over-compensating - everything came at me faster than expected and I lost 3 minutes on the 2nd control. grr.

didn't get a whole lot better afterwards... not as fit as i was a couple of weeks before. didn't stay with the guys that passed me. several big mistakes... SLOW through the green... showed a little potential occasionally, but

not at all happy.
winner (Smola) ran 81?
