Running 20:00 [2]
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212.2

warm up and cool down.

Orienteering 51:28 [5] 4.9 km (10:30 / km) +285m 8:08 / km
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212.2

Started quite easy and safe, took the path around but still missed the control with about 40". Then I got in a good flow and spiking the controls in pretty hard terrain. To the 5th I completely fucked up, the "road" was full of fallen trees and I got confused. I took one re-entrant too far but thought I was looking too early so went further and further... Lost almost 9' to this control and all 4guys that started behind me passed so I was last of the whole pack. I was demotivated but also pissed off and because it's a WRE I decided to push even harder. Caught Daniel again from 9 to 10. Caught Blazo, Dejan and Sava again on the 12th. Small miss in the end so had to let go of Blazo. About 6'20" behind him but at least 9-10' of mistakes.

After 5th control I finally had the perfect flow I have been looking for for a long time. Will try to repeat it tomorrow. FUCK

Running warm up/down 10:00 [2]
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212.2

Warm up and cool down

Orienteering race 1:04:15 [5] 6.5 km (9:53 / km)
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212.2

Hard map and all the thunderstorms from last night made the challenge even bigger. Started slowly to get some confidence but still I was struggling and lost about 5' after just 5 controls. Next few controls were still easy but with good orienteering. After about halfway when I was starting to feel more confident I decided to push hard and try to focus as much as possible. Very few misses from then off and good speed. 2nd behind Aleksander (3'30') and way ahead of the others, quite a lot of competitiors didn't even start the race.
Not completely satisfied with the race but happy about the 2nd half, good to get some confidence for the WRE on saturday.

Running warm up/down 20:00 [2]

warm up and cool down

Orienteering race 58:58 [3] 4.4 km (13:24 / km) +250m 10:26 / km
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212.2

Bad race, suffering all the way and no focus. 8h of driving yesterday and difficulties with breathing because of the height. Walking every uphill and in total at least 12-13' of mistakes. About 18' behind Alexander Minakov who was still 2nd last year at the WRE in Drenthe 3days.

Pain in achilles after the race but not during. We will see about the next days. Focus on the WRE on saturday.
