Middle qual training in Siggefora. Fantastic morning but very wet in the forest made the going really heavy, even for Siggefora, and slippery in places. We did mass start. My oing wasn't great really, not fully there mentally as I was finding the moving so tough. Was still nest Niklas at 7 but he was much faster in the end. I wouldn't have missed 12 in a competition. I was at it, thought I was at it but couldn't see the boulder really so did a circle before realising what I was seeing was really the boulder

O-training 39:14 ***** 4.35 km (9:01 / km) +40m 8:37 / km

Middle final training. We did 1 min iintervals in the order we finished so I went out second. Bad line to 4 meant Pontus caught me and Rasmus (the Danish one) went by quite quickly. Kinda hovered around Pontus in a kind of slow race, having a real hard time actually finding the controls (no kites) but also neither of us were pushing hard. Looking at the quick route I really didn't find some of the controls at all! Got a gap when I got 11 excellently (or at least thought I did) but messed up 12, 13 & 14 so Pontus finished ahead. Bad finish.

Running (off-road) 6:33 1.08 km (6:05 / km) +5m 5:56 / km

After a nice lunch sitting in svamptorget in the sun with a large bread roll headed to Lunsen for training 2. Putting out controls for Wednesday's training. Was going slow enough to be very sure of where I was and it was an interesting exercise to read all the details. It nearly rained on me but it was still a nice afternoon training.

One control is about 5m wrong but otherwise all looks good.
