My best memory from orienteering: Orienteering is a beautiful sport, so it is hard to pick. My most recent and best memory is from the K.O in Olten. Almost 2 perfect days and so many positive emotions. With this result I managed to qualify for the strong swiss team at World Champs.

 

My worst memory from orienteering: In Spain I was chased by a dog, and I ran like crazy until the dog stopped, but I already was running quite long and had to find myself somewhere on the map again.
