Orienteering 2:13:00 [3] 20.0 km (6:39 / km) +395m 6:03 / km

16.5km

We started just a few seconds behind Meynen and L. Melis today in the chase start. But when we got the map they still had to redraw the course on the coulor map, but I continued running and read the copie.
At ctrl 2 we already saw B. Hofmans and B. Parmentier but on the long slope to the 3th ctrl my dad couldn't follow anymore. There I thought, well If I don't make any mistakes anymore we will take the 3th spot.
We continued our race without any mistakes but not on a really high speed. Suddenly, 3 ctrls before the end, we saw Hofmans and Parmentier running again. They were really fed up and we still saved some energy because of the long distance. Ok, lets go for the 2nd place! We accelerated and at the last control, the photographer said: "Vous-ĂȘtes les premiers." "Huh, les premiers?" Apparently we also passed T. Melis without noticing.

I had a very good feeling today and made no mistakes. I had to wait a few times, but still, I was surprised by the physical shape of my dad.

Running warm up/down 10:00 [2] 1.5 km (6:40 / km) +30m 6:04 / km

Warm-up to the start of the Karrim'Hoc.
We were a few seconds late, started as one of the last ones of whole the group.

Orienteering 2:05:24 [4] 18.2 km (6:53 / km) +325m 6:20 / km

14.5 --> real 18.2 (GPS Meynen K.)

As I said we started very bad, we never saw the first runners.
To the second ctrl I could not get myself on te map (wrong interpretation of symbols, afterwards they told me that the symbols are different in France.)
From ctrl 3-5 we picked up a lot of people, for the rest of the course we ran alone till the second last ctrl. There we saw L. Melis and the last ctrl we saw father and son Meynen.
In the end we got 5th and we 'only' lost 2' 20" on the first 2 couples.
Not too bad after all.

I think we lost about 7' in total, offcourse the others did too.
