sep 2020

107.3 km

It was my very first official ITRA marathon (but in July 2020 I ran 100 km around Vitosha, Bulgaria). Route was marked really good on 99.9% distance, but there were some small part which were not obvious (near beach, probably water destroyed flags :)). About food - it was mostly energy chocolates, water, cola, nothing special.
