Can You Use Paint Thinner In A Zippo

RUN AT NIGHT

We are still far from the 5 June 2011 no one doubts but I think it is fair to begin from now to talk about this and other topics that deal closely Ultratrail the Marauder.

If mountain running is already perceived as a BIG difference compared to running on asphalt the typical Tuscan the night tackling a route like this is even more complex e non è certo paragonabile, come qualcuno mi ha detto, al Passatore.

Si potrebbero spendere molte parole per descriverne le sensazioni che ne derivano ma vi assicuro che l'unico modo per carpirne la bellezza è provarlo (magari insieme a noi per la terza edizione del TA del kappadocio che si svolgerà a Luglio)

Correre di notte equivale a vivere emozioni uniche, entrare in sintonia con un ambiente insolito ma anche vivere un viaggio interiore forte e formativo. Come ho detto ad alcuni quando si affronta una traversata notturna se ne esce "provati" a livello mentale ma anche più capaci di capire i propri limiti e "forti di testa" (cosa che nelle corse ha sempre una grandissima importanza)

Starting at midnight from Prato, with a run scored and a service as the successor to the trail of the villain, will offer a series of sensations, images, and unforgettable moments that fill your heart and your head!

Take account of being there at the starting blocks, front head and the classic tension of the beginning. VIA!

a short stretch of asphalt and then begins to rise to paths. In short, the city sounds are muffled by the vegetation and Lights, more and more distant, will frame in addressing the tough initial climb.

reached the summit of Malaparte, stop for a moment to run and turn to Prato jaw-dropping anyone believe me. The lights of a city known through which to review every single monument structural "Prato become the canvas of a painting: the streets, palaces, villages as well as shopping centers and Bisenzio with its unceasing flow

Then starts to run and is often glimpsed through the trees the lights of a city that looks like little by little to a distant memory.

The first relief and then here we are, in the presence of Javello. But even the devastating rise of Javello is rewarded with a fantastic panorama on the summit believe her. Here eyes are lost on a stretch that goes much wider, but also to meet with Prato and Pistoia province.

Then begins the woods, the real one, the closed and only open to the sky, where the animals are the undisputed masters of the transition and hide our lights. Small bright stars that are hidden in the trees. This is perhaps the most intimate and special moment for this introspective journey, where every sound is muffled, the city where all light is absent and where you move along paths that seem to become tunnel. Right now it really reaches a dialogue with themselves, they are now far away from any distractions and you can concentrate on ourselves and what we are facing. And these seem

km at the same time a moment and an eternity in the fullness that it breathes.

It 's time for another stop, the second restaurant, the one that split the province from the province of Pistoia and Prato from here, after a short distance, comes the long voyage side, the one where you are immersed in the forest, on small peaks attacked with our left the lights of a city that now seems distant, unreachable, almost ethereal. And lungs will be so alive in the light of the headlamp you can see your breath and get lost in the dark!

Maybe I do not believe it but it is with great regret that I tell myself that, alas, these moments are bound to end because at 4:30, shortly after leaving the third restaurant, really begin to dawn e continuerete a correre ebbri di un viaggio così particolare e ricco di sensazioni da lasciarvi per un attimo storditi. Ma anche questo momento è particolare e per certi versi ancora più ricco perchè il bosco si risveglia, ti inonda di sensazioni e di piaceri. Una gioia incontenibile!

Per alcuni Pracchia sarà il momento in cui arriverà questo risveglio, per altri ovvero la maggior parte, Pracchia rappresenterà il momento in cui ormai la notte è passata da un pezzo ed è già un lontano ricordo.



Spero questo mio breve racconto del percorso possa avervi fatto venire la voglia di capire cosa voglia dire fare una Notturna!!!! ma voglio anche darvi alcuni piccoli ma FONDAMENTALI advice.



The night is expensive, much of the day believe me. Especially for those who will stop only from Prato forcing the pace certainly tantamount to a withdrawal along the way to an arrival or not exciting.

The good thing is that it consumes less physically because you need less liquid but at night there is the problem of visibility.
The only lights you can see the path to appeal to are those of your front and maybe who is running with you in that stretch. Concentration is the best because it must be very careful where you put your feet of course and then you consume lots of energy (without considering that night usually sleeping)

The use of the front is the key! Who does a lot of racing at night would rather have a dual beam or the torch in front to keep the head and an accessory pathway located on the chest or belly better. This allows you to earn and display three-dimensional obstacles to their actual size. I use a single light, but I'm very careful where you step because it's easy to stumble on something that is considered easier to pass then

BEST NIGHT TO GO PIU 'PIANO AND TAKE CARE!
and you will see that you will enjoy this wonderful journey ^______^
