The Basque broker bets on common sense to face several competitions in a row: "During the week you have to run very little, some asphalt to gain spark, bike, strength work and put less volume throughout this era."
The key, he explains to face the mountain races is not training, since he continues to do more or less the usual and has been preparing himself for 9 years, but the mentality that he has nothing to lose.
For Kortazar, elite athlete and mother of two children, he comments on a joke plan, to compete in Trail Running, It is a pretext to escape every weekend to the mountain, which is what likes it.
