Livelox Pick of the Week; #3

From the competitions held last week, I highly recommend watching some top-quality races from the 'Spring Spartacus' event in Hungary. These races were combined with a training camp held over the Easter holidays, which is why there were also international athletes participating. Organising club: Tabani Spartacus SE

Both days featured excellent courses, although they were all on a single map, which is typical for multi-day events like this. The hilly terrain, characterized by detailed and rugged relief, presented significant challenges in route choice and execution.

Long distance is here

Middle distance is here

Stay tuned for detailed analyses of several runs from these courses, as well as some legs from the relay races in Sweden later this week. You can find the recaps here on the blog and in my Facebook group Orienteering Technical trainings

Left, Right, or Straight: Leg Analysis #18

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). See also all routes of M65 class on this leg Source: https://www.livelox.com/Viewer/Veteranmesterskapet-mellom/H65-?classId=84...
