SUBIDA PICO BANDAMA


Today I came second in Subida Pico Bandama, which was an 18km mountain race. I was pleased with my race as I did not really feel the effects of yesterday´s races in my legs.
The whole way I was together with Pablo Vega a road running specialists from Madrid (with fresh legs) until the decent from Bandama, where his road racing speed was too much for me, and he ended up winning by 50sec.

I finish the weekend 3rd over-all, badly let down by my lack of experience on a bike!

  1. Hello Allan!

    Im considering travel a week to Gran Canary last week in January 2010 so I can run the halfmaraton in Las Palmas.

    Ive been to the island a lot of times before, but I usually live on the south side of the Island (maspalomas,meloneras,puerto mogan)

    I see the race start at 0900 in the morning, and I will most likely run thru the finish line at 1030. How hot is it in Las Palmas this time of year, that early?

    Can you recommend places that are good for running? I prefer running on hard surface but im open for everything. When i Live in meloneras i have a flat nice 10km route usually run, but its a little short.

    I will travel down just for the half maraton and to run. I will most likely rent a car so i can travel diffrent places!

    Hope you can advice me! THANK YOU!

  2. Hei Espen,
    Jeg vil prøve i norsk. Skriv og fortell meg om du ikke kan forstå og vil jeg skrive på engelsk. Sjekk ut min nye selskapet (www.activecanaria.com), som spesialiserer seg i varmt vær trening. Gran Canaria Marathon er første løp er vi fremme og det ville være nyttig for meg hvis du har gjort henvendelser via dette nettstedet, som det ville la meg drive med systemet vårt. Jeg vil kunne hjelpe deg hvordan du vil .. bare råd eller jeg kan hjelpe deg med å organisere hele tiden på Gran Canaria.
    MVH,
