Tom's Running Adventures. Popping my euro cherry in 2015. Alpine Challenge 100 miler (Running Wild/La Sportiva).

The calendar gets busy from here on, with Buller 45km next weekend, then Buffalo 75km (crazily competitive field there) two weeks later. Partic...

The race was held in conjunction with the Pikes Peak Ascent, which rises 2,382m (that’s more than the height of Mount Kosciuszko! By this stage I had to fight the urge to hike any rocky bits that res...
