Running warm up/down 11:30 [2] 2.3 km (5:00 / km)
Orienteering 43:30 [3] 5.8 km (7:30 / km) +140m 6:42 / km
World Cup Relay
Hadn't thought to run today, and instead was lined up to work/volunteer at quarantine. But then the French coach asked if I would like to fill the last spot on a composite team, and I thought 'why not?! what would be more fun than a 4th hard race in tough terrain in 3 days?!'
So I ended up doing both. Working quarantine was good fun! I'm hoping that I can get on the quarantine team for WOC next year, then deny the top girls access to quarantine on account of forged ID's, not meeting dress regulations, being drunk, etc. etc. All the classic bouncer tricks ;)
anyway, I ended up running 3rd leg on a team with Kirsi Nurmi and Florence Hanauer. Went out in 13th position, but was alone the whole course (correction, I got passed by Russia, but I didn't see them at all!). Focus was on having a clean race and not worrying about how tired I felt, hoping all the others felt just as tired.
Didn't understand the circle around 2 and faffed about a minute there, but otherwise just some scrappiness. Enjoyed the course much more than either the pursuit or the long.
Caught sight of Latvia across the felled stuff on the last loop but then had a couple of hiccups so missed the chance to take them in.
