World Run I / ReportsGoto: 2004-04-14 2004-04-16 Russia 2004-04-15: 61Distance 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:-) |
