The full JWOC 2026 wrap-up (sprint, long, middle and relays chaos) mixed with a preview of the upcoming World Champs in Genoa. We chat Matthieu Bührer's dominance, Freja Hjerne's double, Australian heroics, Rachel Baker’s top-10, the most impressive Jukola overtakes, artificial barriers, and Magnus’s upcoming Scandinavian road trip. Plus Ralph’s sickness update and we capture Tim live from Italy.

Pre-JWOC 2026 special with the Swedish junior (and senior) superstar Johan Runesson. We dive into the mental side of being a top junior, Swedish orienteering schools, the pressure of a home JWOC, and what it takes to actually enjoy (and succeed at) junior racing. Plus a quick terrain preview for Karlskrona and the usual banter.

Episode 84 is the full Jukola 2026 recap – the boys relive the absolute chaos of the first leg (trampling, pushing, falling in the green, and one very public 69), share their personal race stories, club results, and how they somehow survived the rain. We also settle the predictions scoreboard (some of us did not cover ourselves in glory) and read the latest listener mail.

The boys try really hard to do a Jukola preview episode but keep getting distracted. Stonehenge, Danish culture, niche facts - all these things take time away from discussing the World's largest orienteering relay.Ralph has run selection races for World Champs, and had to travel through Milton Keynes both ways. Magnus has been trying to run orienteering without a map. Tim has a new job.There is also the usual prediction challenge. Tune in to find out how badly we rate your favourite club's chances

Episode 82 is the full World Cup debrief from Sweden – Tim and Magnus break down the knockout, individual sprint and relay, artificial barriers galore, rat-orientering, and the strong Danish showing. Joseph Lynch (Team New Zealand, currently staying with Tim) pops in for a quick chat at the end about his trip, Jukola plans and more.

Episode 81 is a proper sweaty one – Ralph is literally sweat-maxing in the intro while the boys catch up on World Cup prep, Danish Champs chaos, Magnus’ 420-metre-to-start 5K heroics, and Tim plugging New Zealand hard.We get some honest life updates, sprint talk, coaching opportunities in Christchurch, and the usual banter. World Cup weekend loading.

Episode 80 is a special one: Miika Kirmula (fresh Tiomila winner with Kalevan Rasti) joins Tim and Magnus for a proper chat about his career, fishing stories, changing hairstyles, his Finnish nickname, injuries, and what it really takes to win the big relay.Ralph crashes the recording straight after his sprint race (his apartment now fully cling-filmed by the Bækkelaget juniors in classic brain-rot revenge) and we get the usual outfit roasts, standing-desk chaos, and extended apology section.

Episode 79 is the big Tiomila debrief – sleep-deprived chaos, brain rot pranks, long night train stories, and our predictions finally settled once and for all.We evaluate our own club results, read out the listener abuse, get official World Cup organiser feedback on the mapping drama, and Magnus turns up in full Farum Tisvilde gear to bully everyone into matching orienteering outfits. Apologies section is extra long this week. Tiomila hangover complete.

Episode 78 is our full Tiomila predictions special. Tim and Magnus might be sharing the exact same leg (but what about Ralph?), and we finally drop our proper homework: men’s & women’s top 10s, leg-by-leg chat, new format, and a points system built so Magnus can lose fair and square. We roast the mixed Tranås terrain, club power shifts and all the hot takes. Listener predictions open – send yours in, we’ll roast the results later. Tiomila weekend is here. Good luck out there!

Episode 77 is fresh off the World Cup weekend in Switzerland, where the boys were (once again) nowhere near the start line. Ralph smashed a local middle distance for his first win of the season and Tim passed his forest fitness test ahead of Tiomila. We break down the sprint, relay and knockout races, debate the mapping, artificial barriers, cars in the area, and the great Kasper Fosser hedge-jump controversy. There’s also safety glasses, headbands, ankle braces, one very nerdy rock collection, and Ralph’s first-ever earthquake.
