On February 1, 2024, 'Confident Orienteering: Book 1' is released in Ukrainian. I extend my deepest gratitude to Dudnik Illia, Kobets Svitlana, Petrov Vitalii, Pitirimova Olena, and Polianytsia Stanislav for their exceptional work in translating this book into Ukrainian. I hope that this guide proves valuable for Ukrainian orienteers, many of whom have been compelled to leave their homes, losing their usual orienteering connections and, in some cases, finding themselves without coaches. The English version is available here Aleksandr Alekseyonok, January 25, 2024

Learning from others' errors #6  An example of a parallel error.  Reason - too much trust in tracking route execution relied only on features. Source https://www.tulospalvelu.fi/gps/20221022SL10D21/ See Also https://aliaksandr128.gumroad.com/l/jerzqm Aleksandr Alekseyonok, January 24, 2024

If you're a top elite athlete or a high-level coach and would be willing to participate in a brief interview on this subject, please contact me. Your insights will be of great interest to many orienteers Aleksandr Alekseyonok, January 5, 2024.

  "Confident Orienteering" - one more step forward Another step forward for my "Confident Orienteering" project: the French version is now available in print. The translation and sales are organized by the French orienteer,mapmaker, and coursesetter,  Fabrice Lapergue . The printed French version is available here, as is the digital version Due to the cost of sending hard copies and my heavy workload in writing Book 2 of this practical guide, the English version is not available at this time. However, I am open to various suggestions if someone would like to produce and sell a print run in their country. If you are not from an English-speaking country, you have the option to translate the book into your own language. I offer favorable terms for collaboration on this project. The English-language digital version of the book "Confident Orienteering" Book 1: Fundamentals  in PDF format is available here. Aleksandr Alekseyonok, January 4, 2024
