Und mit dem Herbst-OL gehts ab in die
Backpack is ready and I'm raring to go!
Tomorrow I'll go hiking nearby the city with my orientation course colleagues and we'll make an outdoor lesson.
Using Mapy, Komoot and Garmin GPS is fine, but what if...
This is also my first class that will give me credits for the preliminary trekking guide exam, so I'm very happy.
"An Weihnachten 2019 erleidet Judith Wyder einen Hirnschlag mit gerade einmal 31 Jahren und inmitten ihrer Schwangerschaft."
"Bereits zwei Jahre nach ihrem Hirnschlag bestreitet Judith Wyder wieder Rennen. Und dies erfolgreich. 2024 stellt sie beim Mont-Blanc-Marathon einen neuen Streckenrekord auf."
Starke Geschichte.
Today we carried out championships in a very special German variety of : Mannschaft. Team, but not relay: There's a course that all 3 team members have to register plus a number of controls that are shared among the team members.
The chance to produce mispunches is rather big. This time it was me who forgot a control.

Some maps are beautiful, and some maps are not. Some forests are a joy to run through, and some are not. Being in something like this makes me feel like I'm 19 again, even if the terrain doesn't go by so quickly ) - this week's training course at Mttsund.

I was feeling tired at the end of my (rogaine) run, and figured it was because I was at mile 15 or so. Then I finished and saw I had actually done 20.5 miles. No wonder I was dragging!

ADORO IL GENIO - GPS
A volte il e nel telefono possono essere davvero utili.
A volte.
You either have to be a very spectator friendly sport, or know which palms to grease at the IOC. Ask anyone at the International Federation.
If you can't run through forests in Finland, Scotland is a very seriously good alternative.
Most of my controls were "not optimal"
Final features of Control Club are done: Comparing a route from a feed to your own and commenting! Feels pretty good now. But there are bugs, lots of them... Still release in about 2 weeks is realistic!
I think I'm pretty okay with being called a "young nerd" by John Oliver in his last episode when talking about
Morning line at O-ringen.
Happy participants a few seconds before the mass start to the special "baby fox" challenge. Meeting friends from Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and Germany in Maasmechelen.
The world's most exclusive keep out sign. The tape in Edinburgh's Canongate was to close off an illegal shortcut in the World Championship knock out sprint final. It applied to just 12 elite athletes.
Track and field: A carpet, an oval
The Dark Side. City streets, offices, runners colliding and a sheep.
An athletic World Championship, top class competition, far more exciting than running around in circles, in a scenic capital city
Yet a total media black out. Dark athletics

Go go go Finland!
There is a World Championships in an athletic discipline taking place in Edinburgh right now.
News blackout. Oooh maps, scary!
Starting on Friday, it is the World Orienteering Championships being held in and around Edinburgh featuring 250 athletes from 45 different nations. This year it is purely sprint orienteering - fast paced urban races. Britain is actually quite good at Sprint Orienteering, with the Women's World Champion defending her title on home turf. You can watch it live for free on Eurovision Sport
I made a press kit! Take a look:
Also if you know any journalists or someone who could use this in some publication, please share!
Last day of World Youth Championships in Moldova
59 girls and boys up to 16 years take part in the competitions. Sadly, teams from Czech Republic and Russia are missing.

For someone like me with no geo background, is daunting but to create contours from in for maps I just followed some easy steps:
1 Open DEM file (.tif) in QGIS
2 Install extension "Generalizer"
3 Raster -> Extraction -> Contour (I chose 1,25 as interval between lines) -> Run
4 Select new layer (Contour): Vector -> Generalizer -> "Boyle's Forward..."
5 Save new layer (Contour Memory) as GeoJson and import into OOMapper
This still needs commenting. And route comparison. Commenting is easy, that might come soon. But route comparison is still not done for Android....
Ok here we are now: I can publish courses to brand new Control Club, view other people's courses and react! . Next up is beta testing...
Yippie, in , including dem and dsm! Quantum leap for with and oomapper.
GoGain: Orienteering for the 21st CenturyGoogle Maps: Head southeast.
Me: Bold of you to assume that I have any idea how to locate southeast, given that you're the thing which is destroying my remaining ability to read maps at all.
I thought I was not so bad with map... Until yesterday :D Dense wood seems to be pushing to another level. I turned 4.4 km track into an 8.2 km and done it in 2h17m
But to my surprise, there were still three people slower than me.
I enjoyed it anyway. Glad to try something new. Next time I should pay more attention to the map and train keeping azimuth.
Very entertaining again to watch world cup in on television
Surprising results, too (at least for me)
Todays run. 6.85km in almost 90 minutes :D
OK, my running capabilities are trash as they have always been, but at least I haven't done any major mistake in orienteering. (In my opinion of course).
Thanks to the person from who has purchased a with one of our designs.
Enjoy it and thank you very much for your support!
