| Slovenian National Championships in middle distance. I had a shot today to make a good race. I had a fine mental preparation the previous day - visualising my fight and accuracy. Though - terrain we have been competing in was not quite as I expected.
I started well - in my range, but then it got worse. I had quite some problems with the distance. I have been stopping and searching before the controls. I also missed some azimuts, I have been too careful with the details. I also made some mistakes - the long leg I took the slower route choice, then I got completely distracted. To 11th I have been slow, then missed 90 degrees to the next one, and from that one I missed again - 30 degrees and something. Also the next leg I took trough the thick undergrowth. Well - in the end 36' (Andraz 24', Samo - almost 32'). I made for 7:30 of mistakes. | ||

| 1^ Coppa Italia Notturna, Vivaro. We were a bit late for start with Samo since we have been looking for our accomodation before that.
Anyway - it was mass start in the night - one-man relay race. It was interesting to see so many people in the mass start. I didn't take the fast train to the finish with the elite (I couldn't to be honest, of course), but took it easy and tried to get the most out of the race. It was a wonderful opportunity to train azimuth. Terrain was flat with various land features (some holes and knolls), lot's of paths. It was not that simple to navigate if you got off the course. I was very concentrated in the first loop (30' - 8' behind the winner), but completely distracted in the second, where I made for around 15' of mistakes. I was tired and could hardly follow the map, I turned it around many times, hat to wait a few seconds to determine direction, I was quite lost in the butterflies. Funny feeling - something to be aware of. Anyway - I lost the lead to Samo from the first loop and when he made a mistake to 18th in the second loop we came together again. He would not overtake me, so we finished together. Presumably the last from the start list. Iztok caught the train with the elite and finished 5' behind the winner, which is an amazing result! Winner went 42' (Mamleev). | ||

| Orienteering race (night - scout) 4:05:00 [4] 10.12 km (24:13 / km) +500m 19:25 / km | |

| Traditional scout night orienteering race - NOT. Did a solid job today. The team was 4 old members + one new. Orienteering itself was good, 5 minutes out of the 0 time limit. We ran on topo map 1:25k and have been one of the few teams without a GPS - running on plain compass. We have been quite good. ;)
Terrain was - green, green and green. Partly light green. ;) It was frustrating. Part of the time, but - it was a nice course anyway. Orienteering mistakes have been only done when approaching attackpoints and catching features. E.g. we made a great mistake following azimuth to the major road for 500m. When there, we attacked CP's with a confidence and never really failing there. We have been 2nd on the "speed" leg, which is great. Technical skills have been good. For me - I am very pleased with all my tests. We need to make some more team effort the next time for the top. | ||
