Sunday, March 21 with his legs still a bit 'try from Treviso Marathon and 18km hill the previous day, I attended the 31 th edition of the "Overview of Savassa" non-competitive race of the circuit " Treviso with departure and arrival from the homonymous location from which the event is named, located near the motorway exit Vittorio Veneto Nord. The day is not the best and there is little panoramic view of the haze that accompanies all morning, but at least it does not rain and the temperature is spring (11 ° C at the start).
three routes expected: 6, 12 and 20km, I obviously opt for the longer the prerogative to take it easy to dispose of the festive week of partying behind and to check the status of post marathon form, with the intention to speed limit in the last km.
The departure is at 9, but like any self-respecting non-competitive are many walkers leave prematurely blaming comfortable and taking advantage of the marked route for refreshments and take a walk in nature, nothing wrong with doing so were it not hinder the passage to those who would like to run and compete, because although it is not competitive premiums for the first 5 are still guaranteed ... and so after the first 2 / 3 km on a paved road that climbs the steep slopes of Nevegal we turn onto a narrow path from the bumpy, and here it becomes really impossible to overtake walkers.
Not bad, for me is a test and then patiently waited for the gate to the sopravvanzare escorts without worry of being stretched by those before me in the race and after a couple of miles "to trot" I am honored by the junction that separates the three paths: the shortest turn right down towards the valley floor (the choice taken by the walkers), while the two longer continue to the lake and died Fadalto; from this point forward you resume to run on a pleasant path characterized by continuous changes of slope and direction (the so-called "eat and drink") with the bottom because of the treacherous rocks and roots protruding, often hidden by a veil of leaves. Here I realize that the feeling of heavy calves felt in the first km is gone, and I rediscover exceptionally at ease on this track "technical" but fast, I can easily stretch on trackers I followed the heels of a slowdown caused by walkers in particular I appreciate being able to quickly change running style adapted to the change of slope.
The path of the race continues to run parallel to the A27 highway, until we can see from above, past the lake and the town of Nove Negrisiola, he began a long descent on a bumpy that always brings us back to the valley where the trail is inserted on a slightly uphill road that runs along the lake dead until it is in the northern part of the trail in places Fadalto, here is the halfway point, the direction changes and start the long return to Savassa along a path that goes down up on the water then continue along the lake in the opposite side of the valley. final extension here on my pursuers finding myself alone and not seeing anyone before me, while I understand that it'll be able to retrieve other positions on the other consoles me to think not to find more walkers to obstruct traffic ... Here at the end of the path is slightly flatter and faster exception made for some small tear and a few short "technical", the fund also has less insidious, more smooth and regular, which, combined with the fact that with the passage of the legs km continue to gain energy, allow me to increase the pace leading me to run the last km sprint in solitary with feelings of great physical condition. Very nice
the path from the landscape point of view, although one-tenth miles in a valley then runs mostly in the lakes is fun to see the other side of Val Lapisina, a few miles away, the snake to walk again involved in the first part of the track, despite a significant glance at the sky is crystal clear. In the last stretches of the race fleet back to bump into walkers will soon conclude that the shortest paths, zigzagging, and so gain the arrival. Final time of 1h24'57 "to cover a distance of 19.02 km and a total elevation gain of 392metri, 7 th overall, Not bad considering that for long stretches of the first few kilometers I did not push. In conclusion, positive balance for this first trail race of the year, I foresee a long season full of satisfaction on journeys of this kind, first under the aspect of the performance because I realize that on routes with falsipiani, elevation changes and I am particularly bumpy at ease, and then also from a purely hiking because these races offer me the chance to race in close contact with nature, allowing you to know places and landscapes that would otherwise be difficult chance to see.
