Wauw! Paris got so much love for you - except for hydration situation!
Not an easy one today, but felt so good to come back and finish properly after last years disappointment!
Mentally the beginning was hard. Slept really poorly, nausea all morning and for the first 10k. Changed like the flick of a switch and from 13k it felt like flying. Training paid off. Body had awaken.
From 20 I was contemplating trying to get to the 3H time, but didn’t allow myself to make the decision until the 30k mark. Thankfully, I constraint myself. The inclines towards the end felt like they would never stop. Pushed through.
Never gets old sprinting towards the finish!
Now rest and get ready to push it in Copenhagen!
