Confident Orienteering

Finnish Ulta Long Championships 2019. М20. (20 km). Left, Right, or Straight_#5 Analysis  https://www.tulospalvelu.fi/gps/2019smepH20/ This leg 7 was in the early part of the course and it is likely that the tactical layout of the physical forces influenced the choice of route. The winner of M20 class Ilgvars Caune chose the leftmost route, the "calm" one, where it is possible to keep an even run, with minimal climbing and maximum use of the path. He lost 30 seconds from the direct route, but in the final part of the course the leader showed a much better pace. In this M20 class there were comparatively few participants with GPS. We cannot judge qualitatively about all possible routes. In the figure below, the position of the athletes on  leg 7, who had the top 4 results at the finish line, of those with GPS. Therefore we can judge that they were about the same speed in this part of the course. Micro choice on the left route:  The leftmost approach with maximum use of the tra

  Review by  Klas Karlsson on Confident Orienteering Book Receiving feedback on the book from highly experienced top level athletes is truly a blessing! It's immensely valuable for the author to witness the practical utility of the ideas presented in the book. Such positive input is not only encouraging but also motivating. I'm excited to share that Confident Orienteering Book 2 is already in progress. A heartfelt thanks to the entire team who contributed to the creation of this Confident Orienteering Book 1! Aleksandr Alekseyonok, November 22, 2023 Review by  Klas Karlsson "An impressive piece of work! Short introduction of myself: I have run orienteering for 45 years now. I was very promising as a Junior, and after a bit of struggling as a senior reached the Swedish A-team on a few occasions. However I never managed to make top results. During that time I was most interested in winning, not to the same degree on HOW to win. I thought that by practicing a lot I would even

  Learning from others' errors #1 Parallel Error: Solving Situation The location where the athlete turned left from the open area was at the top of the spur (point "A" on the figure). The planned exit point ("B")was on the slope, making it very easy to determine where to leave the vegetation boundary of open area on the ground. map used: https://www.livelox.com/Events/Show/117334/GrandPrix-2023-08-Zabno See here how to make dramaticlly less errors when execing routes  New e-book on Orienteering for advanced runners

A Practical Guide for orienteers of level "Intermediate +" How many errors do you typically make during an hour of running on a forest course? Have you ever done such a static analysis of it? Is it around 3 minutes, maybe 7, or even 10, or perhaps more than 15 minutes? Imagine reducing those mistakes by 5 or 10 times. Do you think it's unrealistic? It's not! All you need are three things: desire (I want), knowledge (I know), and action (I do). If you're determined to significantly minimise your route execution errors and are ready to put in the effort, this book will equip you with the knowledge you need. After reading it, you'll likely discover new strategies for minimising navigation errors that you've never considered before. Just think: if you've been losing an average of 5 minutes out of every 60 minutes of running due to errors, this book can help you cut that loss down to just 1 minute or even 30 seconds. The best part is that you won't comp

  Book Translation Two days ago, I signed an agreement to translate my book "Confident Orienteering" into French!  The book is expected to be ready for release at the very beginning of 2024.
