She's on the podium again. Stage 2 W21E. Go Emily!
See World of O for details.
Apparently Emily is so awesome this sort of thing is no longer considered occasion for much commentary.
I was going to say, pretty ho-hum reaction by AP. How was the depth of the field?
Of course it´s great that Emily shows she is consistent in her orienteering and has the capacity to be up there! That´s really where she should be in a field like this - on a closer look you can see that only the top 5 girls are of decent/good quality the rest should definitely be beaten...
Tikhonova (RUS) and the two French girls, Chataing and Dodin, all have the odd top-10 performance at WOC in the past years and also a few more in the 15-20 range, so definitely something to compare with. The rest of the field was mainly Portuguese...
The men´s field not much deeper - top 10 or so worth mentioning (Thierry, Adamski, Rollier + Hubmann brothers among them - mostly on a training camp with their respective clubs...).
Way to go Emily, Fantastic!
