World Run I / Reports

Goto: 12004-04-14 12004-04-16 1Russia

2004-04-15: Pictures61
Distance today: 55.0 km (Accumulated: 4973.0 km)
Country: Russia

Route Report: Ufa - Austrum.

55km., 6:12h. (Kazuka and Aleksander +8min.).

Police escort.

Finally we reach Ural - the mountain range that is considered the dividing
line between Europe and Asia / Siberia (thogh I still think that the
highbridge before Vyborg, Russia, with much right could be considered the
end of what most people connect with Europe - and the the beginning of
Russian culture which is quite different in many ways).

We had the first 2 small mountainclimbs and though they were only a few
hundred meters high, it bites well into the legs after 5 hours of
running...

Also we suddenly had gprs-gps connection!!
You should be able to see the result in the "pictures" section of this
report.

They show moments of our run in Ufa, the police escort, a man who
sponsored us with some of his Baskir honey production; and one of our many
media meetings - here a small village session.
I think the picture serie tell the story, we had good fun;-)

But also you get a view of our accomodation, our host family and an inside
view of the sauna!

We REALLY ENJOYED a day where we could think of other things than: "When
is this stage over?".

I hope there is a lot more in store:-)
