Running - Road/Track (Down from Machu Picchu) 28:38 [3] 3.71 km (7:43 / km) +76m 7:00 / km
ahr:121 max:148
This was going to be a walk but rest of group elected to get the bus down, so decided to run it.
Descended about a million steps before the long drag back up to the hotel. Felt pretty good down the steps for 5th on the Strava segment, could definitely win it with another attempt but doubt I'll be back somehow...
Beat the bus down, which was the main thing and surprised everyone. Smashed the estimated time of 'an hour' quoted by the guide.
Also hiked Machu Picchu mountain (600m ascent; 40 mins ish) and to the Sun gate, and ran down from the Sun gate too getting some admiring comments from tourists (like 'that guy is going to die') and more favourably ('that is SO cool').
Views and overall experience amazing.
