Careful orienteering in the long qualification
After the model event and studies of the old map I knew that the long qualification could be rather difficult technically so I did have some respect for the race and decided to be extra careful about my orienteering. I slowed down at some parts of the course and read more details on the map than I usually do. Sometimes I was probably too defensive so I am a bit surprised that I finished 2nd in my heat (C), less than one minute behind Minna but I know that most of the fastest runners were mak ...

My best individual WOC-result
Yesterday I did one of my best performances on sprint distance and finished 9th which is my best individual WOC-result. I am very happy because I know that I could not have done it much better. I did well already in the qualification which was not very difficult technically. I finished 6th in my heat, 27s behind Helena Jansson. I did one ca 5s mistake on the way to the 4th control when I started to think about the long route choice to the 5th control but I "woke up" quickly. I felt ...

Unfortunately it began raining shortly before my start and I was really angry ...

My 6th WOC
I had to think for a while and count to find out the right number for the heading. WOC in Czech republic will be my 6th WOC after Scotland 1999, Finland 2001, Japan 2005, Denmark 2006 and Ukraine 2007. I am member of the Czech team but can I still call it WOC on a home ground after almost 10 years of living in Sweden? I think I can. I am born in Ostrava, third largest town in Czech republic located about 100km NE from Olomouc. The terrains of WOC are very similar to the terrains in which I s ...
