Stony Slovenia

In the middle of march I attended a TC with the Czech national team in Slovenia. It was a week

of good quality training in challenging terrains and also some nice sprint training in the cities

of Izola, Koper and Vipava.

Three stages of the competition Lipica Open 2014 were also part of the camp. Really stony

and demanding terrains but amazing experience, I have to say. We ran a few trainings, as well

as those three stages of the competition, together with runners from the Norwegian team which

was beneficial in the sense that we had more data to analyze afterwards and it was a good comparision, although quite early in the spring.

Climbing to new heights

The O-season starts quite early this year which is also the reason why I'd attended two map TCs already. That, I have to say, were both of top quality. And I hope they helped me to finish this another step onto the next level in my orienteering skills, the step that I'd been trying to make for so long without achieving it. So let's see if I managed to make a proper and stable step forward and what will it brig this new season.
