Retour à la #nuit pour un parcours qui marque de nouveaux départs.
Et qui clôt de manière agréable mes deux premières années de #running et #TrailRunning. Deux ans de découverte, maintenant on accélère !
#Trailrunning: Frisch gemäht ist halb gewonnen 😁🏃♂️
Test Laufhose2: Hose der 1000 Taschen! Prompt zum testen alle vollgepackt, inkl.500 ml Wasser.
Hätte schon fast einen Spickzettel gebraucht 😅 ... und nein, hing nicht in den Kniekehlen 😎
No idea what sort of birds these are — sorry about the dogs. We heard this cacophony while out walking this evening. I thought they might be Eastern Screech Owls, but now not so sure.
Some more photos from the run. We had a fair bit of rain yesterday, which made for more soggy spots but also encouraged more tree leaves out. Instead of drab grey and spots of evergreens, the hillsides are sporting clusters of light green.
Le sentier disparaît parfois, c’est rigolo. Mais il commence tout de même à y avoir un sacré volume de flotte ! Par choix, je n’ai jamais voulu de chaussures de #TrailRunning étanches mais je pense que ça n’aurait servi à rien…
The beauty of double long runs is that by the second half of the second run, my legs are feeling it and I am shuffling along. Slow and steady means lots of quiet time to look around. So many little wonders!
Today I ran the 25km distance at the #Innsbruck#IATF and was quite satisfied overall. Last yr I found it very challenging due to the heat at the time, but today it was great #TrailRunning with 1300 runners of the same distance.
The 800m of elev gain were manageable, and at the next event in August I will try to break the 1800m
And I noticed that as a 52yo runner, I've already been classified as a senior ... that escalated quickly ...
