a real company, not so much for 3:16:06 (well away from the staff of Carpi in 3:06:37 last year) where as it has materialized in February after a terrible torments and frustrations and ; plantar fasciitis that does not leave me in peace again (now I run constantly with the pain in his foot, despite not having even taken a painkiller).
Basically it went well, I am aware have been lucky thus defy fate is reckless and risky. So much!
