Running (Specific endurance) 7:00:01 [3] 30.5 mi (13:46 / mi) +3065m 10:30 / mi
slept:6.5 shoes: Salomon ultra 5
Contamines - Courmayeur
Different groups set off at different times today, and those doing CCC cut some corners. I ended up running with Elise all day as she was the only person I set off with who was doing the full UTMB route. She was a bit slower than me, especially on the descents. It didn’t really matter as I mainly climbed/descended at my own pace then waited for her. I mainly stopped my watch when I stopped but sometimes I forgot. I was running faster than race pace and there were times when I pushed quite hard on the climbs, but mainly it wasn’t particularly strenuous. I made sure I ran the downhills fairly fast too. I feel like I’m descending quite well. I pretty good all day. I didn’t feel particularly affected by the altitude.
I got a massage on my calves in the evening, they aren’t particularly tight compared to how they sometimes are. I now have some fancy magnetic tape on them to help them ‘relax’. Hmm.
260g carb total (mountain fuel, bars, sandwich)
