Russia
Distance today: 56.0 km (Accumulated: 5096.0 km)
Country: Russia
Route Report: Sim - Uruzan.
56km., 5:04h. (Alexander +29min., Kazuka 1:17min.).
During a multi-month/year run like this it is inevitable or even natural
that there are days with friendly "test of strenght".
Today was one of them.
And Ural definately was a good locationfor it.
Alexander completed the first 30km. in ca. 5:40 min/km pace - which is not
exactly easy in a terrain with many small mountains and very few plains to
regain strenght.
The main climb was from 208m to 720m and most of the time eighter UP or
down.
I tried to hang on as best as possible.
Alexander is best at uphill running, while I definately prefer to set the
pace down hill, so it was a longdrawn give-take distance game.
Our finish point was at the bottom of a 6km. descent section(near a
beautifull lake!) and that gave the result.
Also I jumped the water stations the last 26km. to keep in touch on uphill
- not the smartest things in the long terms.
