Starting a bit outside the City of Krajnska Gora - the winding road (24 sharp bends!) is bringing you from about 800 m (2.630 ft.) altitude in less then 10 kilometers up to 1.611 m (5.298 ft.) above sealevel to the mountain-pass called "Vrsic"!
Last Friday it has been happening again - the craziest fun-run I´ve ever heared about - and I have been invited to participate!!!
The weather has not been the best (cool, foggy, a bit windy) - and we have had to expect some snow up there!
9 guys did start together - and after some minutes of warming-up in a gentle group-run my friend Erwin and me started to speed up - getting into "real uphill-speed"....
The road was really steep (up to 14 % gradient!) - and the run has 
been much more hard as I´ve been expecting (normally I´m not a mountain-runner.....) - but at the end we all reached the goal! Erwin and me in only a bit more than 1 hour (Erwin even 1 minute ahead)....

Mountain-running makes very thursty......
The event ended with a fantastic dinner in the City of Krajnska Gora and some more drinks on the road back to Villach......
Looking already forward for next years Vrsic-Run!
