| Pfingststaffel (relay), first leg with Start right before sunset.
I'm not happy with my performance. I (technically) started out ok but I had to fight so much to keep a high pace that I had problems to keep contact with the map. That went ok for the first 5 controls but on the sixth they had put the wrong SI units (thus the wrong number at the control) on the fork and it took me 5' to figure this out (got to the right control first: s...! wrong number! - relocate, came back 3.5' later -> oops still wrong? and found the other fork with my number 1.5' later). Then I started to navigate poorly and made several 2-3' misses. Well finally because of the wrong numbers they canceled the first leg which was good luck for us because our team finished 8th!
Oh yes, and I almost got run over by a cow. A herd of cows and horses got so excited about us (running with our headlamps) that they wanted to join us. An on was running right towards me, I had to jump out of way not to get hit... Welcome to Switzerland! |

Ok run but I just did not feel like pushing myself too much. Chris came back in the middle of the pack and Irene could advance some places. I won some places too which brought us back into the top ten. |

Very tricky terrain, I made a clean, but careful run. A bit unsure on the longer ones but otherwise I'm happy with this run. Despite this I lost 14' to TG...

| Always the same at those conferences: too much to eat and drink and no time for exercise. Never mind, I had a good time in Philly.
An easy run with Irene after a long travel and little sleep. However I fell still pretty good, I hope the Jet-lag doesn't kick in too hard... |

I had a very good race today. After a good start I got into a good rhythm and enjoyed the challenging navigation in the tricky parts and the fighting in the green ;-). Nick D. caught me on 11 ( a bit more than half way into the race) and we were together on and off. I could pull away twice when he was making mistakes but he always caught up again. I had several smaller misses but none more than a minute.

Good run, with only one boom at the 9th (1'). Nice terrain and fun course.
Took a pretty bad fall right before my miss. Got some bruises on my arm and almost had stuck a branch in my leg. Scary...
