21 Leguas de Narón 2026: my first ultramarathon

On 26 September 2026 I completed my first ever ultramarathon: the 21 Leguas de Narón (A Coruña, Spain), a 101 km circular route that starts and finishes at the Paseo Marítimo de Xuvia and runs through Ferrol and Valdoviño along the Costa Ártabra. It was an amazing experience, but a super tough one! I reached the finish line in 11h52’37” at an average pace of 7’01” / km, finishing 19th out of 315 finishers. According to Strava, the route accumulated 2409 m of elevation gain and I burnt 6168 kcal along the way. You can check my Strava file here and the official results here.
