minus-squareZagorath@quokk.aulinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·12 days agoNo advice that hasn’t already been said. Just good luck! (Assuming you’re European or from the Americas. If you’re in Asia or Oceania, I hope it went well!) Is 8k going to be the longest run you’ve ever done, or have you done it before in training?
