Carnival Saturday, hot night at Santinho and the entire beach in party mood. Start with music, activations everywhere and that mix of lights, sea and animated people. It rained a bit, but nothing to end the party. It was one of those races to smile and enjoy the moment, more like a fast walk than serious training.

The route is almost all flat, going around Santinho’s waterfront and climbing slightly towards the coast before returning. The view compensates: dark sea with reflection of lights, warm wind from the front in some stretches and the sound of waves as a metronome. The high humidity weighed, but the crowd’s energy pushed to the end.

On the watch: 5.93 km in 39:45 (6:42/km), 25 m gain and average HR of 160 bpm.
