Training 5
50 km – No more easy peasy! 





Algarve Great Derby – Summer 2025
Hello flock friends, Ringo here!
Today we went out for Training 5 – 50 km on the clock.
After days of an extreme heat wave, the temperatures finally dropped just enough for us to train again.
Still warm, especially at night, but okay for a run like this.
Up north, there are wildfires and we think some smoke might have drifted south,
but nothing big enough to stop us. The real challenge today?
A light headwind from the south, making us work that little bit harder.
Arrivals were steady – medium and small groups dropping in, one after another.
From now on, with the distance growing, it’s all about stamina and orientation.
This is where the easy short tosses end… and the real tests begin.
I say – bring it on.
