orienteering race 38:57 [4] 5.3 km (7:21 / km)
Norra Åbyggeby
Gävle OK Vårluffen Medel
Not as good a race as the day before. The legs were a bit tire, so I had to force myself to push, which means less concentration on the map-reading.
Another short leg to the first control, didn't have a plan for when I got to the circle, went a bit left, lost 20s.
Second I got ok.
Third I drifted left a little a hundred metres before the circle and hesitated a bit before running cleanly into the control. 20s lost.
Four I hesitated with a zigazag when crossing the ride, other than that I thought I did it ok. 10s
Five maybe left would have been faster? Winsplits says I lost 9 seconds.
6 I made a balls, had a good plan, skirt left of the veg, then left of a hill witha cliff then straight. But there was a nice ride going right of the hillcliff, so I took it. Wasted 20s doing that, 10s working out the new route, and 20s when I couldn't see the small hill the control was on (I still think the map was slightly distorted here). 56s. Ouch.
7 good.
8 route, the cliff under the line might have been a faster way in, but I didn't see it. 20s lost apparently, without a real mistake...
9 good
10 ok
11 good
12 I lost 20s by starting off towards thirteen. Which if you see how the course printing is you would understand. Still inexcusable.
13 good.
14 I went a good bit left on this, accidentally. Clean into the control. Winsplits doesn't see a mistake, but probably lost 10-15s
15 ok
16 tried simplifying and made a balls of this short leg. Could have been so easy. 30s lost on a 40s leg.
17 good
18 good, marsh was a bit to the right of where I expected it to be.
19 good
20 ok
21, finish, ok
Fun race, despite the rocks and marshes. Should be orienteering just a little bit better. Winsplits with 7/7 thresholds says I lost 3:22.
Albin R ran 31.
