Back in business

A year passed since my last post. I did not write for a number of reasons. I got a new job where I had to write hundreds of pages of academic text. The little writing time and appetite left for orienteering were spent on drafting a 72-page-long guideline for the organisers of major IOF MTBO events to share my decade-long experience of organizing and controlling several MTBO World Championships and even more World Cup events.

It is time to get back to writing a bit about international orienteering and the IOF. There were a few changes. The IOF became even more political, more conscious of the looks than the substance of what they do and what they deliver for the sport. This is typical for many individuals and organisations over 50.

Yet it is our sport, and it is our collective responsibility to raise questions and point out issues no matter how busy the IOF leadership is looking away. So here are my continued little contributions aimed at improving international orienteering and the IOF.
