Race at Patuxent

On sunday, the whole Bjorgul family left for Patuxent River Park. The map is located east of Washington DC. Astrid ran a yellow course on 2.9 km. She raced fairly good and got 3rd. Ane ran the red course which was the second longest. It was about 8 km and Ane took it easy due to bad running shape, but overall had a good day in the forest with no major mistakes. 

Ida and I ran the longest course, both wanting to beat the other. I started out fast and good in the easy terrain and was leading by about 3 minutes punching the 4th control. After that Ida showed good technique and kept the speed up. I went on a three control miss and the Bjorgul lead was brought over to Ida. On the longleg it only differed 4 seconds between us and we both chose the same route. Ida finsihed 2nd overall 

with 83 minutes and only 3 minutes behind the winner. I was a little farther down the list.  I will beat her next time in Philadelphia if I take away the mistakes. Enough with the peop

le.

 To you MAP interesting people, it's a base map from 1991, but was revised in 2004. We didn't find any irregularities in the terrain and the trip was a good experience.
