Österlen Spring Trail - The Test

 

After a nasty foot injury in December 2022, this was actually the first race of the season for me. I wanted to check the overall fitness of my body and assess the status of my foot, ligaments and tendons that got severely injured.

 

The race went as planned. I had a few low moments but the fact that I enjoyed the most those last 20k gave me some good feedback. My energy levels were always on spot and I had now low moments due to energy intake which is good. The lack of training volume was my biggest problem and I felt that after the race, not during the race.

 

Anyways, I got a good feedback from this. I enjoyed a lovely event and I feel grateful that I participated in this amazing race. Kudos to the organization and each and every fellow runner that finished the race. Well done! :)
