Deep snow skiing in Varrassuo. Bertta didn't like the idea at all. She had little bit too low ground clearance for 50 cm deep snow.

Street/Snow O in Salpakangas - Back to realitity from Portugal and orienteering in 50 cm of snow. From the start everyone left different speed than I did. At the 2nd cp I catched most of them, coz it was next to my most common run - tour de great brick lake. For the 3rd on I made terrible route choice, mostly because Minna Kauppi chose that one too. I knew that Hirppa's route choice would have been much better but I just couldn't keep my decision. I didn't have enough energy to follow Minna and others and from the halfway 2-3 leg I ran on my own. From the sixth cp I chose deep snow route choice and I lost almost 2 minutes on that leg.. Rest of the track went ok, mostly because I had man made paths already in snow.

4th race POM10 - Normally when I have really bad race day before next one, it means good result for the next day. I get from bad results feeling that I want to show myself that I can still orienteer. This one wasn't exception. 2 x 30 sec mistake and 6th place and 2,5 min loss for winner. Good finishing for the week and it's 2-2 with my brother, so it looks tough competition again.. (2009 ended for draw 10-10)

3rd race POM10 - This race was dedicated for collecting training hours for AP..
