Summary

“One of my favorite races. Easy to lock into rhythm and pacing. Always runners around, very little isolation. Also easy to go out too fast if not disciplined. Continued my racing season with a big summer race goal, hit a sub 24 hours at 100 miles, and 96KM checkpoint in 12 hours. ”

Technicality: In terms of technicality, Alsace is a very runnable trails for a 100 miler. Smooth and clean paths with minimal technical sections except the final descent. Climbs are mostly gentle and runnable. Constant running leads to cumulative fatigue in feet, and legs.

Shoes / poles / pack: Leki Super Elite poles / Tectons for the Prodigio Pro. Careful with carbon shoes - Carbon shoes over 100 miles can cause issues if not tested properly. Gels stopped working around 50K, need a backup strategy. Soup and biscuits worked well later in the race. Bring spare shorts to avoid chafing problems.

Logistics: There is easy access via Strasbourg to accommodation. Good accommodation options in Obernai, too. The shuttle system works well for runners and supporters; shuttle buses to the start are well organized. During the race. Course marking is excellent, no navigation needed.

What surprised them: Last climb at 135Km was more technical than expected, so I held back on it to give it my all on the descent. Final descent is long, technical, and fast.

One Tip for Runners: Race pack pickup only on race day in Obernai, which is inconvenient. Best to stay near the finish for easier logistics.
