| Middle distance in the same terrain as the WRE from the day before. Managed to miss again my first control. Too many time I made little search actions. Lost about 4min to Dani. |

| WRE in Puertollano on the map Dehesa Boyal Oeste.
Very little details and sometimes quite bad visibility... and often you had to find your control on the one bush mapped out of the tons in the terrain. Got quite frustrated by the 7th time I had to search a bush in a bush. Anyway, seems like Mätthu M. didn't have too much troubles winning with 4min ahead of Dani. I finished 8.5min behind! |
