Orienteering race (Oringen ) 44:39 [5] 3.6 km (12:24 / km)
shoes: Blue adidas swoop 2
I thought I had a bad run but I just looked at the results and I have beaten a really good runner from the UK.
Note
Had a good time would like to go again! We aren't going next year because we are going to the French 5 or 6 days and then we are going to Halland Sweden in 2012 :) We have already planned ahead.

Orienteering race (Oringen ) 46:18 [5] 3.5 km (13:14 / km)
shoes: Blue adidas swoop 2
I tried my hardest and it worked I came 73rd a place behind a good runner from the UK which I was very happy about. I wasn't taking an hour now. I messed up number three because there was to many paths and tracks and all these Swedish people were asking where they were. I went slow to number 4 because I wasn't sure if I was in the right place or not but I was. I messed number 6 up as well I just didn't have a clue where I was but the control was straight across from the finish so I found the finish first and I found it eventually. I am now 96th overall :)

Orienteering race (Oringen ) 1:02:29 [3] 3.6 km (17:21 / km)
shoes: Blue adidas swoop 2
I am improving because I am trying to get in the top 100. I am now 101st and I now getting competitive :)
I slightly messed up number 1 because there was loads of little paths made by orienteers but I didn't know which was the proper path so I just concentrated on the contours. I messed up 2 as well, I was in the right place I just didn't know the control was on top of the crag. I found the rest of the controls easier but I still took them slow. I went a bit to the right of my number 8 just like my mum did.

Orienteering race 54:20 [4] 2.6 km (20:54 / km)
shoes: Blue adidas swoop 2
I did the same as yesterday and took it slow.
I messed up number 3 big time. My compass pointed north the wrong way and I ended up in totally wrong place.
I was bit to left to number 7. I could of easily improved my time by a long way.
I just love the run - ins. :)

Orienteering race 1:09:08 [3] 3.1 km (22:18 / km)
shoes: Blue adidas swoop 2
I went slow on this race because it is the first time I had done my age class in Sweden. I made sure I knew where I was at all times and I made a few mistakes.
Control 2. I went in to early.
Control 4. I ended up in the wrong place. I was debating whether to cut across or go the easier way but I decided to cut across and it didn't work. I ended up to far right. I know not to cut across if I'm not sure!
Control 6. I lost time because I went round not threw the river.
Finish. I nearly face planted the floor when I went over the bridge!
