Important changes of the this year's course

A bit more than three weeks before the start in Ruhpolding the organization team from Plan B published some very important changes of the course we will be running this year.
Firstly 2010 will be the year with the longest GORE-TEX® Transalpine Run ever with over 300 km now, 305 km exactly.
Furthermore, for safety reasons, some alpine parts were cut and so we will have to ascend about 4000 m less than planned before.
Stage 3 is now 47 km long by the way... :)

The reactions from the runners are different. For me personally it's not the worst thing because of my missed 3 weeks where I couldn't run in the mountains.
Other runners say it's too flat now! I don't know if you really can say that the GORE-TEX® Transalpine Run can be too flat...
Discussions about that you find on our page on facebook.

So everybody enjoy your last hard training days!!!
Cheers. David
