#34 – 50 runs in 100 days – Summer edition

I needed to increase the distance and also needed a more hillier train run this weekend.

Last year I ran Backaleden which was 19K from Alunbruket to Haväng and thought that I would have that as a base and planned my route this weekend.

Decided to run the following route

That would be approximately 25K

Started at 8.40 from Christinehof on the red route and got to Alunbruket where I got a bit confused where to continue but looked at the map and thought that I needed to take to left out on the road and then I saw the orange marker which continued into the woods

 

Perfect temperature, breeze, chillier but I was not freezing, the sun came out once in a while.

After Alunbruket the orange marker was a new part in this area.

I had checked how long I would run thil I would change marker but that did not work

I was suppose to change to yellow at around 4.1 but it was at 5K

The first yellow part was familiar, was part of Backaleden last year

I was suppose to change to orange marker at 7.5K but that was at around 9K and it took me some time to find the orange marker at Vantalängan, wandering around a bit til I saw where I had to continue and that was part was also new

On my way to Bengtemölle I would have a 5K blue detour which was magic

 

On my way to the end of the blue marker I saw a sign saying 200m to Glimmeboda, thought that blue would continue there but that was a detour from the main blue. When I got to Glimmeboda I did not find a blue marker, walked around and then I saw a sign saying ”Strövstig 5K”, this route was 5K so I walked back and saw when I walked back these 200m that I was continuing to the left and then I saw where the orange continued

I ran on this orange and got to a parking lot and saw three directions I could continue, one would take me back and was of course not right, none said Bengtemölle. I knew that I would run on yellow from Bengtemölle to Brösarp and saw Haväng 6.5K and the distance on my pulse watch said 19K and decided I would continue to Haväng on orange. On this orange marker there were a few times I saw yellow saying Backaleden but continued on orange. The distance was fine but it was more dirt road and asphalt, had to take off the t-shirt and run in sports bra because of the sun.

Finally I got to the parking lot at Haväng. Very tired legs at the end.

A little more walking than I had wanted but a nice route.

I have now checked and will do the same route next weekend but will continue on yellow marker when I have continued to Haväng and it shows up the first time so I will run over these hills on yellow last year
