Route choice TIPS and LIVE ANALYSIS with Simona Aebersold & Kasper Fosser

It's a privilege to talk about route choices with some of the best runners in the world. This time it's Simona Aebersold and Kassper Fosser. They share their ways of approaching the long legs during the forest races and also do some LIVE analysis of several difficult legs from different courses. Enjoy! :) Routes from the video: Map 1: https://www.livelox.com/Viewer/DM-lan... Map 2: https://www.livelox.com/Viewer/O-Ring... Map 3: https://www.livelox.com/Viewer/SEEOC-...

My name is Tom, I've been running through countless different forests since 1994, I've been a mediocre athlete and I can only hope that I've been a better coach to my clubmates and to the junior national team that I'm working with. Please join me on the journey of creating something new in orienteering. Learning, which is why I'm here, is a neverending story, let's make it fun! :) If you want to contact me: [email protected]   / tomekpabich     / into.the.forest_i.go   Enjoy!
