Barcelona (Spain) 17 february 2013 8.45 Half Marathon (21,098 km)
Time: 1h 37 m 54 s Position: 2954/14000
Category: 1317
This is one of the European half marathons with the largest number of
participants. This year there were approximately 14 thousand runners and
therefore it was not to be missed. The start and the finish were
situated close to the 'Arch of Triumph. The location was not difficult,
with some slight uphill parts, the rout was winding through the wide
streets of the city along the Ramblas and the waterfront. The
organization was excellent and I had no problems with getting the bid
number, there was water and everything that one needs before, during and
also after the race. Needless to say that the scenarios offered by the
city and the thousands of people cheering during the race were unique
and even the weather was good. This time I also had a physical problem
and I had to keep my pace not very fast. Because of that I finished the
race with the result of 1 hour 37 minutes and 54 seconds, which is one
of my worst ones. At the finish a T-shirt and a medal for everybody!
