Officially, this was my last race in Romania this year. USA here I come, hoping for a few spontaneous runs while I'm there ❤ Ever since I’ve heard (like 4 years ago) about that race where you can drink wine while running 15k, I knew I belonged to that thing. I'm talking about Corcova Trail … Continue reading Romania 2019: La Salina Trail Run & MTB, 12.10
