Left, Right, or Straight #11
Leg 1-2 is from H21E long distance of "Halden O-Meeting".
Which approach to Control 2 do you prefer: from the top (right-side route) or from the edge of the marsh (left-side route)?
Left, Right, or Straight: Leg Analysis #18 Presented leg 6-7 from the middle distance of the Norwegian Masters Championship 2024 (15.09. 2024; M65 class). Of the possible three routes, the left route goes over the hill and has almost the same lengthening as the right route (which has no climb). So we're not considering left route for execution. On the direct route there is a very steep slope to climb up. It takes a lot of time. See a comparison drawing of the best routes of straight and right. The right route turns out to be the fastest, while it is possible to see other legs ahead on the road. However, it is important to take the shortest route to the road from control 6. See a comparison drawing of two right routes on this leg ( best time on the leg and the course leader who only had 7th time on this leg).

The red one looks shorter and faster.
