Please cheer for our club in the worlds largest orienteering relay. This year Jukola has attracted almost 20,000 runners among them a team from Luxembourg. After finishing on 1190th position in 2015, year we finished 599th last year and gained a starting position closer to the starting line, so needed given the arrangement of the start corridor this year. We plan to run in the following order:

599 Luxembourg Orienteering Club 1 LUX

1 Jevgenijs Sproge
2 Jonas Wolff
3 Ondřej Kotecký
4 David Roach
5 Jan Slíva
6 Olena Pitirimova
7 Oleksandr Rybakov

Follow the competion live

Those not travelling can follow the endeavours of the team through the organiser's websites: https://live.jukola.com/ for live feed and http://online.jukola.com/tulokset/en/ for online results

In addition, the public broadcaster YLE is sending live from the competition in  Finnish https://areena.yle.fi/tv and Swedish https://arenan.yle.fi/tv. These are restricted to a Finnish IP-adress, so this is for the as well IT-savy as polyglot!

And few quotes about the terrain by the course setter:

There are very few marshes or ditches.

The area is woodland with barely any man-made paths. The paths will be created during the competition by the feet of the previous runners.

One should ignore small-scale deviations (in this case meaning stones and smaller boulders) and concentrate on larger and more obvious landforms.
