...with cheese


which means I did 51km today around the palace.
Took me 4:26 in total including some stops for water and such things. Chika joint for the first 25k -THANKS a lot, Chika!- and Christiane for the last 15k. It was getting warm during the run and I had difficulties getting enough water into my stomach without problems. Last 5k were pretty hard. I felt really dehydrated and was unwilling to go on. Will rest tomorrow and see how my recovery goes.

That is awesome, Joachim. Looks like 5:12 per K, which is a pretty damn good pace. Yes, I expect the last 5k would be hard! Give yourself a rest....
