I thought I'd post some more re: this trail race coming up on 7th June. I will really need to step my training up for this one, quite literally, and may soon be visiting my old friends the hundreds of steps up the mountain at the Southern edge of town. (Yes, will definitely keep you posted re: my training for this race Kristina!). Re: this training. Hmm, now I'm not too sure what to do for it exactly. I am aiming to alter my current 'advanced half marathon training plan' and add in a couple of stair/mountain sessions each week, and try to add in a few extra kms to the long run each weekend, as currently the training plan goes up to 28.8km but no higher. Watch this space. Did some excellent work for this training plan this morning by choosing to sleep in and get a little bit more rest before a long day of teaching begins, but hopefully I will get out there this arvo for that 9.66km one I had planned.
Ok, so on to the info for this race. This is on the website I found when researching events in China:
