Yesterday's run turned into a meh, just didn't have it in me or even wanted to, managed shy of 3km where most was done walking around looking for ghost in a ruined factory.

So it was good to be out on a familiar trails today. Though a cut from some branches the other day, was at the itching stages of healing. So everytime my foot hit the ground my shoe nudged the scap and the itch woke up with a big HELLO.

Today's RAAAD was again a popular music combo that shouldn't be listed to when you want to take it easy. Good solid drum and bass by Breakbeat Era and their album Ultra-Obscene.

Uuuuh this seems nice; Matterhorn Ultraks SKY

Just saw a YouTube video with an Australian running it. Looked really nice. 49K with some 3K vert.

Will note that down as a race to perhaps try in the coming years 🤩

It somehow feels surreal when you see the #ultrarunner passing by you bed and you‘re not part of the pack.
I will do only the one loop of #sliabhliag adventure run today instead of four, too much elevation (appr. 550 Hm per loop) for me.

Would have been a few k shorter, but got stuck on the wrong side of a stream that only turned out to be the right side when I almost met up with my route again

This would speed up the down part of my training on stairs. Though I would need to have several bikes placed at the top… 🫣😳
