10mila Eksjö. Ran the last leg after Martina, Sonja, Heidi, and Saila. Girls did pretty well and I went out 15th, a bit over 10min behind the lead and 2min behind the 14th. So no realistic chances to catch anyone and I thought I could have a nice and easy run without having to push too hard. Took all the time I needed to climb up the first hill, which meant that Lena, who had started less than 1min behind, caught me already on the way to 1st control. But we had different forking at the beginning and I managed to stay in front of her until control 5. Then I had to accelerate to keep up with her but since I only had 4 gears in use and wanted to do my own work I kind of let her go. To number 11 I made a small mistake and met with Lena again. Also Irina Nyberg from Hellas joined us there. We continued together, making slightly different route choices and meeting at controls. From spectator control I made a different route choice and got a small gap. But on the way to the last control we were together again. Lena did a shortcut whereas I headed to the fence and Irina followed me. Irina passed me in the climb before the last control but I managed to keep Lena behind me and brought us home 14th. Pretty good.
