Kirkpatrick 144 Posted March 19, 2019 Author #2 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Watching recent Universiade got to know this sport, and I grown to quite like it. So, will definitely check World Championship. I thought it was an interesting sport, especially with GPS pages synced. First event tomorrow at 9 am CET, check it out too!

I liked watch orienteering during the World Games for the same reason. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

heywoodu 13,540 Posted March 19, 2019 #4 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Having synced GPS pages is sort of the only way to at least somewhat follow what's going on (at least for me), without that it's just pure mayhem and waiting for people to arrive at split times in any random order If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirkpatrick 144 Posted March 21, 2019 Author #7 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I found this easier and more enjoyable to follow if it has all of my attention, and not for example...curling on the TV and this on comp or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirkpatrick 144 Posted March 26, 2019 Author #8 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Lovely championships, I managed to catch all the races. Luckily, official site still has all the videos, nothing is spoiled, and easily accessible GPS pages. Looking forward to non-winter orienteering events.
