Day 1 - 31 Miles In
Sep 8, 2019
Day 1 is now over and Gab is taking a little break to get some food and rest his legs at the third checkpoint, Valgrisa, 31 miles into the 205-mile journey. This year's race is turning out to be much colder than previous years (good thing he's grown out the beard), but aside from the cold Gab reports he's feeling great and learned from last time not to push it too hard early on. He also has three sets of hiking poles and has zero left knee pain, and according to the team, is looking happy and healthy.
