Höstlunken (2017-11-05)

Höstlunken with Mykola in gömmaren/kallbrink

Höstlunken is a long/short ultra distance that is run in pairs. I never really ran with mykola and had no idea how fit or good at orienteering he actually was and he doesn't speak English that much, exciting day to come.

In the begining I said stay relaxed and save energy but he was running pretty fast, I wasn't sure if he could hold it and I was in for a tough day or what so I ran at a solid pace I knew I could hold for 2hr30.

We started with typical pairs orienteering where neither of us orienteering enough, not concentrating fully. But after a really stupid error leaving no5 (yiez mistake) then I took over the orienteering. But Mykola was still running fast and waiting for me but I felt comfortable and confident that I could hold this pace.

From here we orienteered pretty well.

On the long leg back the road was OOB but I didnt see any other good options so decided we would run near the road with it in sight.

Nearing no 14 I heard a load "pop!" There goes Mykola!! Rest of the course became me pulling him along!
