At night, we had two little trainings..To warm up we ran a memory sprint race and after we had a supersprint (1,1km)..

On sunday, we ran a contour training  where in the map we just had the contours and the greens. We did this training without compass. (you can compare our map with the real map).

So, was a nice weekend where the only bad thing was the weather. There was a lot of rain and were 0-3 degrees (what is cold for us) on sunday.

At 23rd/24th January we will be in a training camp for the Portuguese team and our next national competition is the "Portugal O Meeting", where we expect a lot of foreign runner.

See you,
