Report

I ran the Nahesteig alone during the afternoon, cloudy 10 degree weather, very muddy but many beautiful trails. At about km 2 I had to cross the river with more than waist-deep water and got totally soaked. Along the trail, at several points the signs showed deviations, but I kept following the gpx track from the FKT website. I carried with me a small running backpack with 500ml of isotonic beverage and 2 fruit bars. I felt good until km 25 but the end was hard due too very low blood sugar levels. My girlfriend dropped me at the start and picked me up at the finish.
