10/02/2008 On Sunday, they celebrated the 37 th edition of this popular place, which I attended along with four colleagues hiker central Premià de Mar (Maite, Antonio, Maria José and Fernando). We arrived at the Garriga
at 5 in the morning, intending to catch an early bus (which takes you to Viladrau), but to our surprise, at that time had about 400 people queuing. It took 1 time up to the coach.
After 40 minutes away by bus, we started the race from Viladrau (6:40). The start was fast as horses desvocados, if not by cold or by the desire to reach (31km lay ahead.) Ferdinand picked up the group, and that his intention was to make the greatest possible stretch run.
The first was immediate supplies, approximately 2km. For Maria Jose was a disappointment, since he had taken on the bus for breakfast (juice, pasta, bars ....:)), but for others, the piece of coca (frozen) and Cacaolat (warm) we knew to glory.
Follow the path with a slight slope, and was gradually fading evening, giving way to the light of day, allowing us to turn off the front. We
the hermitage of Mare de Deu d'Erola, unable to devote much time, or rather none.
+-4km When we had traveled, we began the dreaded facing slope, a slope of approximately 37% + - 200 meters. And after the sharp rise, which was to reach Sant Segimon where we could not reach because of the ban by the person who is in charge, began the tour of the Pla d'en Besa with the misfortune of meeting a group of participants, performing first aid to a fellow who had just suffered a heart attack. Seeing that we could not help in relief, we decided to keep walking hoping that the event did not end in disgrace, but at the end of the tour we learned that after an hour of waiting, when they reached the forest, the person had died. Past
Collformic, we find the second of the supplies, with sausage and wine. After recess (not excess) we continue our achievement by the Pla de la Calma, until the third supplies in the Pla de l'alzina. At this point Maite had to leave against their will, because of a sore leg, which had been dragging all week.
The remaining three group members, we continue the march to the final.
latter +-17km stretch is full of runs with different levels of + -37%, and this makes Pupitar knees. María José was one of the victims of the slope. The discomfort in her knee on Friday morning, he stressed, reaching a level of catch, but did not prevent him reaching the final.
After 6h, and 40, we reach the end of the course. Maite waiting for us, who received us with cheers and applause. We were also treated to a backpack by the organization.
Until next time ..... -------------------------------------------------
