What happened? A brutal, honest report from my failed race in Kranj, Slovenia.
Slovenia 12 hours in Kranj is the best organized 12 hour race out there. I had the pleasure to attend. These are my short stories from that race. I also have a chat with Anna. A Swedish ultramarathoner living the van camping life. Full of life and dreams!

As a last minute update .... a few days after my initial reactions:
"
My avg pace for the first ~ 60k was ca 4:30 min/km. (After 6 hours I had ca 77.5k). My initial pace, 4:30, was higher than the plan (4:40-4:50). Again, I must learn to be more patient. Can not continue to do that same mistake. After my fall at ca 65k, where I was lying flat on the ground with wounds on my knees and elbows, I started to feel a lot of stiffness. And felt that cramps building up. At 79k I stopped to change my shoes to a less agressive model (from Altra Vanish Carbon 2 to Altra Fwd Experience). As Sondre helped me with the shoes I got a mega cramp at left leg. Without anything else than a shorts, I was lying at the asfalt in full length, for the 2nd time, and screaming. (Had to ride it off. ) At that point I knew that my race was lost. In short, I blame 1) 4:30 instead of 4:40-4:50 and 2.) stupid me being unfocused (I was trying to change a song at my watch) and tripped over a roadblock 😔
