El tast de la mitja

It could well be said that it will be the asphalt race (maybe not the first, but one of the biggest) that inaugurates the new normality of putting on a race bib in an urban environment while following the path, through vaccination, of eradicating (or at least minimizing) the effects of the pandemic.
Here I detail everything I think you need to know about this Tast 2021: the route explained km by km, the detailed race profile, circuit maps so you can get an idea of what you’ll find, an approach to race strategy and an attempt to solve most of the doubts you may have about: services, transportation, starting boxes, protocols. Here we go.
It is ideal for those who know how to save and then finish. For those who have a steady pace I must also tell you that it is not as leg-breaking as the Mitja (those steep slopes on the way back were pure agony), here we have seven kilometers with a tendency to climb but gently (almost always falsollanea) and with many stretches of rest (ie, very smooth downhill or flat) and a final descent of little slope but you can run a lot if the wind allows you to do so.

Granollers half marathon

With a safety protocol that participants have accepted willingly and showed their cooperation to comply with it, as we told you in the RACE PREVIEW. Athletes have been separated into seven boxes with a safety distance at the start of 1.5 meters and have used the mandatory mask both at the start and at the finish.
Punctually, at 8:45 a.m., the starting signal was given at the start of a real running party like the ones of yesteryear. Today there have been 1,500 runners, in three weeks, the Mitja de Granollers expects to have 4,000 at the start.
Ayad Lamdassem: «I liked the race very much, the circuit is very favorable and it is very meritorious to organize a race in these conditions. We ran in a group until kilometer 7. We were running at three minutes per kilometer, an easy pace for me, and I changed the pace in the most favorable part of the course to get away.
In three weeks I will run the Mitja de Granollers, where I think I can make a good time, less than 1h03′, and this race has been great for me. These races are part of my preparation for the Olympic Games. My goal in Tokyo is to be in the top eight».
