Skåla Opp 2021
Plus 14 and a bit rainy at the start and lower temperatures and possible sleet/snow at the top. My biggest dilemma was clothing. Two years ago it was a bit warmer down at the start but really cold and windy at the top. This time I decided to skip shorts and run with pants & light jacket. And man oh my I was sweating the first 30mins. It was like hell and I felt pretty exhausted already at the bridge over the river (650m). Then in the more open landscape wind started to blow a bit more and it felt silghtly better. When passing Skålavatnet I was still pretty sure I couldn't beat my own record (1:53). After the steep part from Skaret I noticed surprisingly that I was ahead of my own record. I finished with 1:48, beating my personal record by 5mins. Really, really satisfied.
