Running (Road) warm up/down 3:37 [3] 0.61 km (5:55 / km) +6m 5:38 / km
shoes: Inov8 Oroc 280 Ice-Tec
Drove from Lahti to Mäntsälä to pick Riina up off the train to Kouvola. No crash or incident so a success.
Jogged from the car to the assembly where I bumped into Hirppa, he has loaned me his emit for the trip so i dont have to rent one every week.

Orienteering ◪ 48:34 [3] *** 5.67 km (8:34 / km) +77m 8:01 / km
spiked:10/12c shoes: Inov8 Oroc 280 Ice-Tec
P-H iltarastit
LS-37 Viestiharjoitus
Korpihoilo : 4.6km : 12c
SR = 1.233
Started in the second row after All-in gave us a briefing......in Finnish.....so i got none of that!
On the route to the first control I was totally alone, I want to say an inspired routechoice but in reality maybe the wrong one. Bit too low for control 2 having done 95% of the leg well. Lost about 60secs here. 3 was good, head up and spotting features. Simplified the longish leg to 4 and was a tiny bit to the west but could see the land falling. 5 was a safe route, 6 was fairly straight and then did a banana to 7. 8 was fine and then lost maybe 10sec to 9 being a bit confused near the control. 10 I found the major boulder about 200m from the kite and then messed up, drifted off the bearing. KOMPASSI!!! From the big boulder to getting back there to start again cost 4 minutes. Decided to go back and do the leg right. 11 was a safe route and 12-maali were fine.
Think I'm trying to over orienteer to help my confidence which maybe isnt a bad thing at this stage. Trying to learn the tricks in this terrain. Bit different to Ballincollig Regional park for a Tuesday evening event.
Some good parts, some not so good but overall it was great fun being with the LS gang.

shoes: Asics Gel Noosa Tri10
To Tapinila via the hiitokeskus to meet Hirppa who was giving me maps for training and introduced me to a few people like All-in. Turns out Hirppa knows the enigma that is ndobbs!
Lahden Suunnistajat-37 have a nice set-up, should get something like this for BOC.....

Orienteering ◪ 21:15 [3] 3.09 km (6:52 / km) +49m 6:22 / km

Hippo-suunistuskoulu
Päätöskisa-Tapanila
H/D 13-14 : 2.8km : 9c
SR = 1.104
RI = 0.091
All-in got me a map for the kiddies races. Did the H/D14........much more difficult than would be at home. Helped some little girl on the way to 1 who started asking in finnish, i said i spoke english, so she waved her hands over the map in a "I'm confused please show me where I am nice man" kind of way......or maybe she wasnt lost at all, either way I showed where she was regardless.
Didnt get the medal or juice-box but I guess I have maybe graduated from suunistuskoulu, a big step forward in my orienteering career.
Just about saved some blushes tonight! Fast kids!
Also this evening FC Lahti won away to Veikkausliiga leaders HJK Helsinki 4-1.

Also, Peruskartta is pretty cool in the GPS trace screen

Hollolan urheilijat-46 Sunnuntairastit
Koromäki
B-rata : 4.6km : 8c
SR = 1.341
RI =0.178
First 3 controls went pretty well. The on to 4 Im not really sure what i did but did wander losing 12minutes on that leg alone. Welcome back to orienteering! Smooth then for 5,6,7,8 and jogged to the finish.
Without the 12mins dropped to 4 id have been about 1min behind the winner which wouldve been pretty solid.
Mistake aside nice to be back trotting in nice forests again.
Did my first bit of Finnish driving with an automatic and on the wrong side of the road.....no accidents to report! Getting close on the scandinavian flick
