Just noticed that yesterday was a marathon in Podgorica, about 2 hours from Shkoder.
Now, there is no way I could do a marathon - certainly not at the moment, but there was also a half marathon - which still would have been too far for me, but it is interesting to know that there is opportunity to run something like this close to home.
What I found interesting was that there were 6 entrants from Albania for the half marathon.
Nexhat Xhemale, Suad Jegeni, Kajo Myftarago, Vashi Faniro, Tonin Shiroka, Sotir Qiriaqi.
What I found interesting was that all these runners were over 60 years of age, and the first 2 home were Nexhat Xhemale and Suad Jegeni, who came in together at 1:51:12.
That is a very good time indeed!
...and Nexhat is 72 years of age.
Well done you guys!
I hope I can run a half marathon in that time when I am 72 years of age( God willing!)
I was hoping that at the Ultra-Marathon (50km) in April , they would have had some 5km and 10km races, but it doesn't look like it.
