Trail Running race (Three Cranes Day 2) 4:31:38 40.2 km (6:45 / km) +1159m 5:54 / km
ahr:160 max:183 shoes: Asics Gel Fuji Sensor 3 #2
Another glorious day, starting with a fast 8km along forestry roads before a steep climb up and over Mbona. Once again, we settled in about 20th to 25th place, running with Tracy most of the time. More amazing singletrack descents alongside some lakes through the Mbona Private Reserve and then up through the magnificent Benvie Gardens to the time out zone at 25km. Started feeling the effort in the last few km to Benvie, so enjoyed a good 40 min break here off the clock, in the shade, with some tea and cake! :)
The day was getting hot though and the slog over the hill out of Benvie was not that fun. Fun forest descent after passing an artist's house and then a last hot slog along forestry roads to the finish. Finished 25th again, but moved up to 23rd overall. The winner (Solicitor Manduwa) flew through this fairly runnable day in 3h20m!
