4º position in 10 km race in Alpera

On saturday 24th April was the Otilio Delicado race in Alpera (Albacete).

There I was the 4th in my category and the 7th in the general clasification. It was a very hard race because it was a warm day and before I was swimming in Los Arenales del Sol for half hour.

But I ran fast and feel well running with a lot of people in the race, near 700 atlethes. I got a lot of presents from the race: a bottle of wine, a bag, tshirt...

Trine won in San Vicente

On sunday 11th April I won my first race in La Nucia (Alicante)J




It was the 8th edition of the San Vicente race.



The race was 9 km long. All was by small paths in the mountain and in the woods. It was like running in NorwayJ J J

We started at 10.30 in La Nucia, ran up hills and down steep paths, sweating in the warm april sun (16 degrees).

45 min 30 sec later I arrived at the goal!!! This was in a small chapel (Ermita de San Vicente).

I am very happy with this race. I won my category, and was 4th in general.

And I improved my time from last year with 3 minutesJ

Running today I felt very good. Easy on the foot and with lots of energy!!! But when I fininshed the race I was so dizzy from the sun that I had to lay down and recover. Although I haven´t been training much running this winter, I have done a lot of sports; skiing, swimming, kayaking, cycling, walking in the mountains and yoga.
