Almansa Half Marathon Race

After a trip marked by the works of the A1 and a jam on the M50 by accident, I came to Almansa on Friday at about 22:15. Dinner and bed at a hotel with wifi, so already prepared the chronicle. In the morning breakfast and walk around and know the people, seeing the streets, a church and especially the castle ( photos). Collect

dorsal and extensive stock of the corridor, where everything was perfectly organized and keep walking, sitting in the shade (not a cloud in the sky, sun and heat ...), and finally take something to eat in an Italian and return to the hotel, where I take a little nap and then get ready for the race. The goal for today was to make the best possible given my form, but especially the ankle was OK, and craic.

Of which I trotted out the heat is unbearable to me, I heat a little and I placed at the output that we are many. I see there is an idiot with a greyhound with a belt canicros. Not because it is an athletics competition and that you pull a dog is an illegal aid, is that in a race that we are 4600 I think a significant danger that the dog or the tape that ties him ended up shooting someone.

output is given and the principle dodging people, and at km 2 with the heat I can not run well, and between that and the circuit is a broken leg, I decided not to aim too not to suffer unduly. The trouble is that when I decide that I usually let go too. So they pass km far public and animation, and thanks to some that we watered with hoses, the fire between them. Over the first lap I see the clock that almost 50 '. One thing is suffering and one that was on 10.5.
from 12 try to improve the pace and it seems that I can make it to 14 or so, then I start to give a milk cramps, I have fear of having to stop to free weight ... And back to slow down. At 17 he is the worst hill and over with the sun in front, shortened step and say no experience, little by little.

A downhill from there, increasing the pace and something I have visited people but in 19 other gnawing me back to download it. In 20 attempts to change but I can not. 500 meters and tell all, and easy, step-change in many people, but at 300 meters I start to hurt the quadriceps as if he had gone to stop, do not understand anything, it will heat. Entered the final goal in 1:39: net. Slightly less than when I hare but this time suffering like a dog. Still happy, ankle did not complain, I've totally stopped two weeks, it also has, heat cramps ... when you can, you can not ...

The race itself was excellent, the town dump, the organization perfect finishes and it seemed that we were few in the wide area there was. Supplies in La Mancha goal with different specialties, not tried that I did was keep running to the bathroom ... In a randomly distributed target gift vouchers .. I play a backpack.
And it's very, very popular, which returned to the hotel, in 19.5 career had already 2:05, and is not that people would drip, there were still many runners. Seriously if you can run it, it is worth.
