However, since most orienteers here grew up while the rule was still in place, there is a big psychological barrier as well.

I don’t know about any special rules for swimming in this race, though.

Was there out of bounds overprint on the map, or were there any special instructions given? Does Norway have any national rules that do not allow runners to cross water?
