The Venla relay race, part of the larger Jukola orienteering competition in Kotka, Finland, experienced significant disruptions on Saturday afternoon. A power outage, heavy rainfall, and resulting traffic congestion created chaotic conditions for participants. The outage impacted the women’s relay, causing delays and logistical challenges. Organizers are working to mitigate the effects of these issues. However, they anticipate the men’s Jukola relay scheduled for Sunday night will not be affected by the power cut. The competition continues despite the earlier difficulties, with efforts focused on ensuring a smooth continuation of the event.
