Hienosti järjestetty tapahtuma

Juoksin Paavon ensimmäistä kertaa 2014 (maraton). Tapahtuma oli hyvin järjestetty, kaikki palvelut olivat lähellä ja toimivat hienosti, eikä ollut liiaksi ruuhkaa. Lähtö puolikkaalle ja koko pitkälle lähti samaan aikaan, mikä asetti tietenkin hieman haasteita omalle juoksurytmille, kun puolikkaan pinkojat lähtivät kiihdyttelemään ekan kympin jälkeen. Kun sai itsensä hillittyä, tokakin kierros sujui ihan mallikkaasti, vaikka en ollut aiemmin juossut maratonia tällä tavoin kahta kertaa samaa rinkulaa. Porukkaa riitti myös toiselle kierrokselle eli ei tarvinnut yksinään niitä kaikkein vaikeimpiakaan kilometrejä mennä. Reitti oli sopivan vaihteleva, mutta ei liiaan vaikea. Koska maisemat oli niin hienoja, ei yhtään haitannut katsella niitä uudelleen: oli jopa kiva, kun muisti etukäteen, että 32 km:n kohdalla on söpöjä lehmiä yms. :) Suosittelen ehdottomasti!
