Victory for Wing OK in World Cup mix sprint-relay

To day was a great Norwegian day in Bulgaria, with two teams at the podium. Lars and I won the first mix sprint relay in the ski-orienteering world cup ever. As we both represent Wing OK, it is a victory both for Norway and Wing OK. (The picture is taken at the world champs in Rusutsu, Japan, where we learned origami..)
Both Lars and me did good races to day and are obviously happy to win, although we expected harder competition from some of the russian teams we think we did a good performance.
Our second team, Norway II with Hans-Jørgen and Barbro Kvåle, finished as number three, an impressive result for the young team. Øyvind Watterdal and Maren Haverstad also did a good race and finished 13th.

To morrow we will travel by buss to Mircurea Ciuc in Romania and the european championships and junior world championships, where we will meet the rest of the Norwegian senior and junior team. It will probably be a long day in the buss, 530 km in snowy weather and various street quality takes a while.
