Back home from our short (4 days) but intensive (more than 8 hours and 75 km of o-training and competitions with 2500m of climb) i'm back home now and try to analyze the situation. I have to admit i expected a little different terrain by just seeing the maps. It was a very useful opportunity to get the right ideas before starting with winter preparation.

Here the remaining maps:

The most important things for my preparation will be the following

• running on stony ground

• uphill running

• route choices (I think I got just once the right one during this 4 days :-)

• controls on steep slopes

I think the slides from the WOC2009 lecture during last weeks training camp can be very useful for preparation too.
