Oslo City Cup #2 (18.04.2023)

I took too long to find the start triangle on the map, by the time I saw it and realized that I should have gone left to #1 I was already too far along. I lost about 10 sec here.

No alternative routes to #2 or #3, but when I left #3 to the west/right I hit the low fence and instead of reading the map again to verify that it was passable, I turned around and ran back and out through the gate. Another 5 seconds here?

OK routes to #5, 6, 7 & 8.

I took the shortest route to #9 but it was possibly a few seconds faster to go right since that route had easier uphill running on the road and avoided any extra climb.

OK to #10, 11,& 12.

There were two routes to #13, according to Livelox they were exactly the same distance and time!

Except for some slight hesitation to #15 the rest was OK.

Total time loss 15-20 sec, I was 3:42 behind my old club mate Eivind Hoff, so I'm still running far too slowly. On the other hand, today I was 2 minutes closer than last week since I had avoided any large mistakes.
