Hi!
Last weekend (24 th to 25 th January) there was the NAOM, a organization by GD4C, the Joana’s and Isabel’s club. Like we had said in the last post, Isabel and Joana didn´t run because they were helping in the organization (Isabel was the speaker of the event and Joana was in the technical part where she was putting the controls on the terrain), so, Mariana was the only O-Laranjita participating. She ran in D20, and without her principals adversaries running, she won the 3 races =D (the middle distance, the night sprint distance and the long distance).
The middle distance was a race in a very good map, that wasn´t just a technical map but also a terrain very physical with a lot of climbs. Mariana had a course of 3.9km and did 36’15’’. Was a good race to her, but she lost some time with the physical component. Take a look on the map:
The night sprint was a special race because there were two different scales. The first part of the course was done in a scale of 1/5000 and when we were more less in the middle of the course, we had to turn the map and run in 1/1000. This second part was all done in a park. The woman 20 had 2,6km and Mariana won, realizing the race in 19’19’’.

The long distance was in a map principally physical but also with a part with a lot of stones that became the course also technical. Mariana did 58’53’’ in 7,1km. She was doing a very good race until came to the 9th control and lose too much time in the 10th and 11st control (she lost at least 7/8 minutes on these mistakes).
Was a good orienteering event where we can highlight the victories of Michal Smola and Eva Juřeníková in man and woman elite. You can see the results and some photos here.
Our next important competition is the Portugal “O” Meeting that will be a very good event with a lot of runners (portuguese and foreign). Check all the informations from this event here.
Now, at the school, we are having a lot of tests and works for to do :S what don’t permit us write you so frequently but we will try do it always that we can.
See you,
