Back to start Norwegian version of the blog

A terrible day, is the short summary. This was a difficult course.

They day started out fine, we got a very nice spot next to the finish, and Sander and Silje got early start 90 minutes before mine, så this time I could follow them to start and also meet then in the finish. That's not sual, so I was very pleased....

Sander god well started with his 1.9 km, and Silje was starting just 7 mintes later on her 2.8 km course. Just managed to get back to the finish area, and the Sander was arriving in just 19.35 minutes on his race. Normally longer time that usual, but this time the map was quite difficult compared to a lot of other races, and that's just good. It obviously favoures him, and he this time won with 6 minutes to the second on the list (!) . That's awesome and his 4th victory of 4 this season, and he's making me proud.

Also Silje got quick to the finish, she had also a difficult course, and had big improvements on her behalf. She ended up on 21st place of 54. Just 2,5 minutes behind Ingunn from the club Sturla, which has been 5 to 15 minutes ahead earlier, so she probably did her best race ever. Very good, and Silje was also very satisfied about the result. I'm prod of her as well, as she have just beeing competing for a couple of years, and her competitors has been in the game more than twice as long as her.

So to my own race, it was terrible bad. The course was just to difficult for me, I wasn't able to do the good choices that's neccesary to get to the controls fast. This time the control 3 and 8 was most bad, but also on control 2 and 11 I was loosing too much time. I managed to get in as nbr 26 of 32. Details are here .

After studying my race, I see that it's the choice of direction, I'm doing bad. To control 3 I should go north and hit the path and then easy into the control.

Also to control 8 I should go south and the west, and would probably find the control easy.

But, I'm learning as long I'm living...

I choose to enjoy my kids good results, and just need to do more technical training for my own.
