More Top 10 in 2006 - Top web page
The web is full of great orienteering web pages. Think of Attackpoint, World Of O, Hott-Johansen, and Tero. But after some thought I've decided that my favorite for 2006 is...Aspleaf.
Here is a rough translation to give you an idea of what Aspleaf is up to:
Don't blink. Take 10 seconds to pick your route on the leg below. Of course, you don't have to limit yourself to my suggestions.
Got it? Good. You made the right choice. You should pick your route and stick to it. Analyzing if it is right or wrong can wait until after the race, with the help of split times.
Only those who analyze their races afterwards will be able to improve. I used to "tjata" [Eglinski note: I can't exactly come up with a good English translation for "tjata." A direct translation doesn't come to mind, but it involves talking about something over-and-over until it becomes annoying] until everyone around me was tired of it. Now, it is just the wife and kids who are within range; and they are, to say the least, tired of all my talking about maps and split times.
Thanks, Aspleaf, for making my daily visit interesting.
