Postas Cup 09-10.04.2011 – Pilisszentlélek (Hungary)

17/05/2011 admin Leave a comment

Although it passed long time from the competition, I can remember the effort I put on the two routes. Perhaps that if would have existed the 21A category, I would not be enrolled in 21E, but its absence and the small length from the 21B (less than 5km), led me to subscribe to this category in order to take full advantage of the forest and the trails.
I didn’t get tired by the length, but the fallen branches that made running difficult.
Beautiful forest (it was a reservation after all: P) and interesting routes which challenged me both physically and technical, have contributed greatly to the success of competition from my point of view.
Below are the maps of the two days of competition.

Spring Cup 03.04.2011 – Baraj

14/05/2011 admin Leave a comment

Although I left home in a really good mood, when I arrived at Baraj, I was extremely excited. No longer I did not expect anyone but me (that’s right, I never asked about who will be there, plus I know that there are contests in other cities – although not recently checked the calendar, due to extra-mega-crowded schedule that I had, and I could not know that there is no other competion in the area), to which I was convinced that the other orienteers participate. So the surprise to see so many people there was very pleasant.

I do not think I took the best route to thefirst control, and at 6st control … already felt the climbing in my feet. After Melinda and Monica already had passed on me, I still wanted to go in my rhythm but … surprise .. At control 9, on the road, I stumbled and I got hurt my hand and knee in a portion just full of stones. Needless to say I started to run slowly only when I felt like my knee does not hurt.

In 16 control, I was wrong and went in the valley, where I had seen the top of a cliff and I thought is the right one … ! By the end of the route we have not had noticeable mistakes, but I tried not to push the knee, which already had a big bruise …
The competition was extremely successful, with an excellent weather, with many people who made the competition even more enjoyable, and I hope next year we will see the same formula at the beginning of spring …

Orienteering

Juniper Open Spring 26.02.2011 – Tazlar(Hungary)

14/05/2011 admin Leave a comment

Although my participation in this competition was under question, because of planning the travel to the place where the competition was held, in the end I had the pleasure of taking part in Juniper Open. I say pleasure because it really was. I haven’t ran on such a demanding map since Croatia Open in 2010, and the challenges the land raised were very interesting. The map was technical, and in the first day, I have made lots of mistakes, both because of distance, and because of orienteering (some of them so silly mistakes), especially due to lack of technical training. From my point of view the competition was successful: the map was technical, had demanding routes, the area was interesting, and vegetation that has not grown properly yet, sometimes was more confusing than helpful.

Below are maps that I ran:

Maramures Trophy 29-30.01.2011 – Baraj

07/04/2011 admin Leave a comment

On a very nice time, took place Maramures Trophy at Baraj. I have not skied for more than 6 years, and I could not wait to put skis on my feet. Although snow was just alittle, skiing was possible during the route. There were not many participants, but I totally enjoyed the competition. The nicest moment of the trip was when within a few meters before the end of my route, trying to stop the timer, I stumbled to the top of something and I fell like a pancake Below you can see the map from the first day.

Stage two was slightly more animated. Time was as beautiful as the day before and I was still able to ski all the route. I must admit that after the end of the competition I could feel the exhaustion in my arms and that I have not skied at all for such a long period of time. Unfortunatelly, I miss the times when the snow was so huge during the winter in our area …
