Nízkotatranská stíhačka 2023 (101km / 5489m+), Telgárt - Donovaly, 15.7.2023
I did jetfight 😅 In my notes, I'm recording another iconic Slovak ultra-trail mountain race - Nízkotatranská stíhačka (Low Tatras Jetfighter), perhaps not so demanding in terms of parameters, but this year spiced up by the elimination at Čertovica and fired up by the summer heat wave. But that's how I like it 😀 I am signing up with doubts about myself and my ability to fit into the announced number of 100 with permission to continue from Čertovica to Ďumbier ridge. I am booking an accommodation in the 1* Hotel Telgárt, which is long past its best days, but what more does a person need - a bed, a shower and as a bonus - a view from the room window of Kráľova skala and there somewhere behind it looms Kráľova hoľa which we are to climb the next morning. The idea of elimination at Čertovica makes me feel dizzy and stressed, yes, I confess without torture, I honestly do care. I really want to run the whole race, go over the whole ridge in one go. So far, I've run it in two...
