A bit windy but quite warm and good temperature for running. Fairly easy course but it's always more fun in the darkness 😉
Tagpaloheinä
Fairly easy course avoiding the big hill. Bad direction out of #1 towards #2, otherwise mostly OK.
Warm +21C or so.
#1-#4 mostly OK along paths, #5 was a bit hidden.
Very close to #12 on the first try but ran past it and looped back for another try 😉
Stay tuned for Hollola-Jukola in one week..
No major problems with the orienteering - perhaps a sign of too easy slow route-choices?
Decent running for a change... I decided to run without compass on this easy map, and this seems to sharpen the mind and senses. 5th overall until control #3, but then dropping to 9th on #4 and 10th at the finish. The route choice to #4 is maybe too safe, driven by the lack of a compass (see also #11)..
A 9k loop around paloheinä. Here's a skewed panorama of the vantaa river:
Good challenging course on an easy map. No compass. Windy and cold with more rain, wind, and snow forecast for the afternoon.
A loop past #1, then bit too far past #2, again a loop at #6.
Yahoo the orienteering season 2017 has been opened!
Easy orienteering on a well-known area/map 😉 Still managed to be confused at #2 about the control-code, and then a small loop around #10.
No big mistakes. Worst split is #6 which came just after a long run along the road to #5. 13th/93 overall.
Mostly good running speed on a fairly simple map/course.
Probably +3 minues at #2, not finding the planned southern path between #1-#2. After that quite OK until a bit of hesitation approaching #8.
