Running race 3:50:00 [4] 26.0 mi (8:51 / mi) +1100m 7:49 / mi
Fuego Y Aqua 26K trail run in Nicaragua
Great race for me up Volcano Concepcion, way harder and way steeper than I thought it would be, both up and down. Straight down, no switchbacks for the top 500m or so.
Agua y Fuego has the potential to be a truly great race due to the phenomenal location on a safe and sleepy island in nicaragua with two volcanos, and the amazing people of Ometepe who are tremendously tolerant of the 3 day invasion of hundreds of pasty white north Americans
(chicos). With some easy-to-fix issues around course marking and racer support on course I would recommend this race for anyone who loves running in the blistering heat. Just ignore the obnoxious survival runners (70k), who haven't yet discovered adventure racing.
Hats off to Storm for creating his own route to the 100k finish line after getting bored following the course for the previous 95K. What an amazing feat of strength! Watch out ESAR racers.
