Natt-massstart Råhult (29/12/2020)

4°, rain and a really nice professional massstart training with 4 other guys. Quite a lot of mistakes from my side, but also from the others so that we came nearly all together to the finish with me on the second place. To control 2 I left the group and went on my own, which was slower and I lost the group the first time. At control 3 I caught them already and we ran together until control 7. There I was so unsure and thought that I was at a different control that all the others continued, but I ran out to the path and came after one minute to the same control (quite unnecessary, but the result of bad orienteering). At control 8 I caught already the first runner and at control 14, where we had the map change, the others.
Whenever I followed someone else, I felt unsure and made mistakes because I just followed and had no control, but when I had to orientate on my own, it went much better. So, it seems that I need more routines in relays ...
Even though it was cold, wet and tough, it was a super nice training!
