With so many hills, and being in unknown territory, I chose not to try to go the full long run distance that my marathon program suggested this week (29 KM's), and I am glad I only did what I did (17.5 KM's). My legs are really tired today! Unfortunately, I will have a tough time making up the distance this week, as I am back in Dallas where it is still 33 C at 18:30, and doesn't seem to be cooling down!
Wow! Fantastic elevation profile! Just love it. Kind of like Vertex marathon. I understand that you are crazily tired now.
SvaraRaderaRegarding the heat. I understand that it will be tough but why will you not be able to do the distance?
Ohhhhh, what an elevation curve, 17,5km on these tracks, yes that's real impressive .....
SvaraRaderaGood training also, it's just about slowing down on the tempo. A wise decision to not go the full 29km distance in unknowned terrain......
