JWOC Sprint Women 2016: GPS and Split Analysis

Simona Aebersold took the lead at the first control and kept it all the way to the finish – never challenged by her competitors. – I stopped several times when I was uncertain, Aebersold said after the race. Obviously a good tactic in this hilly sprint with some tricky route choices.

The Swiss JWOC sprint champion from 2015 in Rauland, Norway managed to repeat her victory on homeground. Safe orienteering and high speed was the combination which gave Aebersold the gold medal.

[This race analysis is a cooperation between the JWOC organizers and WorldofO. Thanks to the JWOC organizers for excellent service – including long and useful discussions with the course setters. In this analysis we first show a few key points in the race development, then do a brief overall analysis, before taking a very thorough leg-by-leg analysis. ]

Race graph

plot (31)

 

The race graph shows very clearly that Aebersold was never challenged by the competitors. Aebersold increased her race leg-by-leg, seldom loosing any time at all. Actually, Aebersold never lost more than 4(!) seconds to the best split on any leg – winning 10 of 17 legs.  Taking Aebersold out of the race graph shows a tight fight for the other medals, though.

Silver medalist Anna Dvorianskaia and bronze medalist Anna Haataja were within 10 seconds of  each other througout the race. Haataja was ahead until control 13, but a 8 second time loss (and only 69th best split time) due to a wrong route choice just after the spectator control made the Finn loose the fight for a medal. See below for a comparison between Haataja and Dvorianskaia leg by leg.

4th place finisher Weiler was in silver position until halfway, but two bad legs to control 8 and 9 made the Hungarian loose 12 and 14 seconds (with only 114th and 124th best split time) – in the end Weiler had only 11 seconds up to the silver medal. See below for a comparison between Weiler and Dvorianskaia leg by leg – and GPS route comparison. Weiler’s time losses are not due to wrong route choice, but rather due to navigational problems.

Leg-by-leg GPS analysis

Below is an analysis of the race leg by leg – for each leg showing the blank map and the map with route choice alternatives (including lengths). For the most interesting legs, GPS-data is also shown. Note that the GPS-data from the sprint is quite poor, but it is good enough to (usually) understand which route each runner took. The split times shown in the GPS-analysis are actual split times from the official timing system – and these are thus accurate even if the GPS-data is not. Split times and current standing for each control are also shown in a separate table for each leg.

Junior Women (W20): S-1

Analysis: The two routechoices to the first control are nearly equivalent. Aebersold does show her great physical shape already to the first control by being 2 seconds baster than the rest. This leg is more about navigation than about route choice – many loose time….

Junior Women (W20): 1-2

Analysis: Going left is clearly faster on this leg – nearly all top runners do also go left. Only Paula Gross goes right of the best – loosing 23 seconds. Going right is 75 meters longer, but you only save a few meters climb. The climb is less steep, but that does not help.

Junior Women (W20): 4-5

Analysis: Another short leg with minimal route choice, and still quite a few runners loose time due to navigational difficulties. Part of the reason may be that some runners use time to plan the long leg which is up next. Aebersold actually looses 3 seconds to best split time here.

22. Paula Gross 4:07 +0:32
Junior Women (W20): 5-6

Analysis: This is the longest and most decisive leg with respect to time differences. Although there is significant time to loose by taking the wrong route choice (to the right), many runners loose time here due to bad execution or taking the wrong micro route choice in the middle part of the leg through the park. It seems like the articifial fences in the park were problematic for many of the runners – many reported about stopping somewhere on the leg due to not understanding the map or where they were. Simona Aebersold is fastest with a straight route choice (but not through the park). Paula Gross looses 42 seconds by going up (but not all the way up to the road). Josefine Lind looses 28 seconds because she gets unsecure in the park. Many of the second best runners run around to the right – loosing from 28 seconds and upwards.

Analysis: Here going left is clearly faster and shorter, and most top runners do exactly that. Haataja, however, goes right and looses 10 seconds and the silver medal. Many other lower placed runners also go right.

Analysis: Quite a few do not see that going left (C alternative) is significantly shorter than the other alternatives. Both Dvorianskaia and Haataja go into the course setters trap here, loosing 14 and 15 seconds, respectively. Not enough to loose the medals, though.

    Do you know what happened to Ingrid Lundanes at the passing control?

    It seems like multiple competitors were DSQ’ed on this control, did they actually forget to punch, or did they punch but not sufficiently long/deep to register?

    • Punching problem at spectator control. Several runners had no punch there. Lundanes even ran back and punched the second SI unit, still no punch registered. Norway even delivered a protest, but without result.
