Second ultra in a month: Yet another new experience

This Friday I'll be running the Swiss Irontrail T81 . 88 km  run with 5000 metres of elevation gain four weeks after the Eiger Ultra Trail. After the Eiger trail, I spent a few days recovering. I was suffering from shin splints for the first time since I started running. When the pain faded away, I went for a 15k run and the day after my shins were sore again. So I had a couple of weeks of recovery and only went for a couple of easy runs. After a few physiotherapy session, my leg is now pain free and I cannot wait to face the next challenge. It's not gonna be easy, but I will give all I've got to finish this race and get enough qualifying points for the UTMB 2015. Stay tuned
