A few notes from Jonn Are Myrhen
Jonn Are Myrhen wrote a bit about a lecture he gave to the club IK Grane. Myrhen has run for the Netherlands but is now moving over to the Norwegian national team. He's a very good orienteer.
In summarizing his lecture, he made two main points:
1. Relevant training, visualizing, and armchair orienteering makes it easier to act properly during an O' course and also increases your self confidence. Both are very important.
2. Both the terrain and the club environment in IK Grane has always developed good orienteers.
