It was a short ultra-marathon at 46 km \/ 2200 m. It was pretty tough. For a change we ran together for the entire race. Probably because Leonie wasn\u2019t feeling so good and couldn\u2019t leave me. Muhahaha. My ITB on my left leg gave me problems after 20 km but by the end it was my knees that were pretty sore.<\/p>\n<p>The race was ok but the scenery wasn\u2019t as spectacular as the Transruinaulta marathon in Switzerland last weekend. Still most of it was offroad which was nice.<\/p>\n<p>We both finished in 6 hours 23 minutes and 36 seconds. Not really a blistering pace but I was happy to complete it.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.strava.com\/activities\/1252481456\/embed\/5368abeaf01106348d65aef599ca2a840e0807fd\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"590\" height=\"405\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Strava had something to say about all this.
