CIMG3821After a not perfect race yesterday, my lead in the over-all melted down to just one minute. So the goals for today where 2: try to conserve some time of this advantage in order to win the 6 Days and being fastest of the Austrian runners. I succeeded in both.

I had a good start, took the best route to the first control and did not have any bigger problems in the first difficult controls (3-6). When I came the second time to this most demanding area of the map I was maybe not careful enough. I missed control 10 (the center of the butterfly) and also 2 controls on the first butterfly loop.

Tyrol 6 Days: victory also in stage 4 PDF Print E-mail

11,3 km with 530m of climb in a physical and technical very demanding terrain was waiting for us in yesterdays 4th stage.  I started carefully, because the first controls downhill with all the small marches looked quite difficult to me. I had a very good first part of the race until I made a small mistake on control number 13 (a strange situation there, a lot of runners missed) and a very big one to control nr 20. I was tired there already and did not keep the height out from number 19 and so I lost 5 minutes in the half open marches below the control. Stupid!

I tried to forget this mistake and to push hard in the final part, which was very demanding physically. In the finish I was a little surprised to be in the lead but obviously also other runners in Men’s elite class had some problems on the course.

This afternoon a middle distance will take place in the same area with the same finish, so I am expecting again a very challenging course.

6dot1In preparation for WOC in August I am currently taking part in the “Tyrol 6 Days”, a multiday competition in my home region Tyrol.
Perfect organization, good maps, challenging courses and wonderful weather so far during the first 3 stages.
The start was very good for me. After a 3rd place in a funny and challenging sprint prologue with a labyrinth part and a 2nd place on first stage I won Stage number 2 with just 3 seconds.
