The competition terrain is very similar to yesterday. Varying runnability, lot of vegetation and undergrowth. There's also a lot of small marshes. Overall - technical orienteering.
Weather conditions are yet again very good. Quite clear skies, temperature more than 20c. Lucky them!

Checked out the route gadget, it always amazes me how some people can go so quick no matter what's in front of them.

Rain--rain and more rain. The all blacks are in for a wet one tomorrow. 30mins before Martin gets to first radio control. He should be pleased with his efforts. 2hrs 05 is a long time in the heat.And 2.29 behind in the sprint was a good run.
