Set of at 9pm for a hike and camp in the hills above our place, needed to get out of every day life! Found a spectacular spot looking over the lake and lights of Zurich, unfortunately too cloudy for the full moon though.

Forchlauf, an evening race put on by the uni sports club, set along beautiful forest tracks on the hill above Zurich. Reasonably hilly, but nice to have most of the up in the first half and then more downhill towards the end.
The start was extremely slow and crowded for about 1.5km which was a bit frustrating but at least forced me to start conservatively and also then I could feel fast by overtaking constantly ;)
Ran at a tempo pace, but the last few km's started to feel like I was racing, trying to hold off the guy on my shoulder and had a tough sprint battle with at the end which was fun.
Felt weak in the middle of the race, like low blood sugar so I was glad I didn't do the 15km option. Have a few running races in the next month or so to remind me what running hard is..
