It finally happened! On 08.08.2015, thanks to the trail mountain race „Chudy Wawrzyniec” I became an ultramarathon man!
The run was organized in Rajcza, in Żywiec Beskids, leading through red and green hiking trail over six peaks: Rachowiec, Kikula, Wielka Racza, Jaworzyna, Wielka Rycerzowa and Muńcuł. The finish line was set in Ujsoły.
The whole race measured approx. 53 km and over 2,000 meters of climbing. I set out on a route with nearly 900 participants at 04:00 am and it took me 7:17:10 to cover the distance – two hours less than I expected!
It was tough and the weather did not help. As soon as the sun rose, African temperatures sucked all the strength and required drinking hectoliters of water to rehydrate. But I succeded! Soon I will post a commentary and some pictures on the page. Come back soon :-)
