To be exact, it was tough. Tough in the sense that the weather was freezing cold at night, and the amount of accent and descents is enough to accumulate my one year of hill trainings. Although training was good towards the race in the sense of mileage clocked, it wasn't the main obstacle of the race. The main obstacle was doing fast walk and hikes through various part of the course that was not runnable, mainly very rocky and steep climbs which makes more than 50% of the course.
After all, I still did finished, in a total of 27hours and 26mins. It was disappointing as I didn't managed to go sub 24 for the Bronze trophy. Nonetheless, might be planning to return next year again.
Before the start!
