Wednesday, December 20, 2006 More Top 10 - My Favorite SnapshotsI'm not sure if these are my favorite snapshots from 2006, but they are among my favorites.In the first snapshot, Eddie B. punches at the last control while John F. heads toward the finish line. The snapshot is from an early round of the 2006 sprint series final. The format for the sprint series final is a bit unusual (but fun). Groups of four runners start at the same time. Same course. No forking. The top two in each heat go forward.  The next of my favorites is from the Super Elite Sprint in Soderhamn, Sweden. The race was designed to be great for spectators - top runners, big screen video, announcer, places to watch the runners on the course. The crowd (mostly orienteers i n town for Oringen 5 Days) must have been a few thousand.  The runner in the snapshot is Oystein Kvaal Osterbo who has one of the better orienteering web pages that I've found. Below is some post race analysis (what Ola and Magnus call "kepsa") after one of the races at Oringen 5-Days. I like this snapshot because, for me, looking at maps and talking about the course and how it went is such a big part of the sport. I also like that it brings back nice memories of our week in the little town of Mo. When I look at a snapshot like this I can practically smell the coffee.  Back to okansas.blogspot.com.
