POM Day 3: Routes of Top 5 Men & Women

See how Thierry Gueorgiou, Daniel Hubmann, Olav Lundanes and the other top runners solved the challenges in today’s World Ranking event in Portugal O-meeting. The race was a middle distance race in interesting terrain providing a lot of micro route choices.

– The best terrain I found in Portugal, Thierry Gueorgiou said after his impressive win. – It was a very nice middle distance course with many micro route choices. It was really important to not get lost in the green.

Thanks a lot to the organizers for providing maps with route choices from the race. Note that as this race was a WRE race, the use of GPS watches was not allowed. Thus there will be less GPS-routes to analyze from this race.
