Report

We started at 06:00 at Frognerseteren as a quartet (Paul, Julius, Adrià and Ola). The first half to the first aid station at 50km (Tverrrsjøstallen) was nice - the trails and weather was really good! Ola abandoned early though and Adrià decided to stop at the aid station with our crew. We climbed Helgehaugen, Lamannshaugen and Svarttjernshøgda before the first aid station, and all was good until then. From Tverrsjøstallen (50km) Pål joined Paul and Julius as a pacer and companion - we had a nice run over the Pershusfjellet ridge to Sinnerdammen (cabin), but at 60km the rain started to fall. We climbed Ringkollen and then further down the trail we met our crew again at 70km. We paused and fueled up a bit, as the rain was getting heavier. From there on Adrià decided to join us again and run all the way home. The part from the aid station at Langtjern (parking) to the last peak at Oppkuven was rainy, cold and slow. From Oppkuven to Sørkedalen we got to run gravel roads for som km's which vas nice for the legs. At 95km in Sørkedalen our crew gave us some warm soup and warm blankets, before the last stretch to the finish. We reached Frognerseteren at 21:30 in the evening, after 15.5 hours on the run. There to meet us was our crew, friends and family - Gildwen, Nora, Pål, Marie and Catherine.
