Same procedure as every week, James.

Same as the previous two Saturdays, I set off at 10:30 with 1l of water and 250gr of carbs. The start of the route is right in front of the Basilika in Echternach and follows the bike lane along the Sauer river before heading into the woods. There were two minor deviations due to works on the bike lane, but I don't think it changed much on the total distance.

This route offers really nice single tails and great views, but unfortunately the single trails are only in the first half of the trail. After climbing up from Moersdorf, direction Mompach the route is mostly on asphalt and hard-packed forest roads.

It was a really nice run and I'm glad I managed to hit my goal of staying under 3hrs.
